Oh what do you think 65 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 2: of this? 66 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 5: Right? 67 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 6: Right? 68 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: One eye opened. I was like, what what what Kevin Durant. 69 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant on the move headed to the Houston Rockets 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: Phoenix Suns in return getting not Alpera and Shingoon, not 71 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: Steven Adams, not I'm in Thompson, but Jalen Green, Dylan Brooks, 72 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: the tenth overall pick in this year's draft. I think 73 00:03:58,360 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 2: it was tenth what whatever? 74 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: Either what not first or. 75 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: Second eight, nine to ten, whatever, You're right, and then 76 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: some second rounders, some second round picks, five, second round 77 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: five five. It is a lot, but it's Kevin Durant. 78 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: I'm not super surprised. On In fact, you could say 79 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: that what the Sons originally gave up to get Kevin Durant, yeah, 80 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,799 Speaker 2: was a lot more. They are not getting the exact same, 81 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 2: but they are getting some pieces back. The Sons are 82 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: in a situation where it's gonna take a minute to rebuild, right, 83 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: it wasn't gonna be just with this trade. It was 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: gonna help you. The Rockets, on the other hand, are 85 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: a few steps away from really being true contenders. Yeah, true, right, 86 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: How do you like this move for the Rockets or 87 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: the Rockets? 88 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: For the Rockets, they are in contention. Now that doesn't 89 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 4: mean they're going to win it, but they are in contention. 90 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 4: They are as this roster is constructed, their top four 91 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 4: easily and a healthy Kevin Durant if he was in 92 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 4: this series this year with Houston against Golden State, they 93 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 4: win like they're there. They're there, So I'm excited about them. 94 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 4: I'm excited for Houston. I'm excited for Im Dooka, who 95 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 4: obviously has gone through the ringer and had some you know, 96 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 4: some some miss some missteps along the way. Go to 97 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 4: a young team, a situation in Houston where people thought 98 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 4: he was just kind of exiled. Build those guys up. 99 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 4: They're ready to ready to compete even without Kevin Durant. 100 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 4: Now you get one of the top scores in NBA 101 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 4: history on your team where he can fully, i mean, 102 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 4: like solely focus on scoring. 103 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 3: He doesn't have to be a defender because he's not 104 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: that guy anymore. 105 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: No, but he's a statue. 106 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 3: But adding that piece crazy. 107 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 4: When you talk about the Phoenix Suns, when you talk 108 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: about mismanaging something. 109 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: When they brought the new owner, I think it's Isa. 110 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, he completely toured that team apart. And that's that's 111 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: the other thing about the NBA. You think you can 112 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 4: just add names to a mix and you're gonna win games. 113 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 4: That does not happen. You gotta have culture, you gotta 114 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 4: have equity. You get rid of the coach that took 115 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 4: them to the NBA Finals, and then you get rid 116 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 4: of Chris Paul, you get rid of DeAndre Ayt, and 117 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 4: you get rid of all that core to bring in 118 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 4: three guys that you're thinking score points and fill up 119 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 4: seats and you don't win. 120 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 3: The Phoenix Suns are in a bad, bad place. 121 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: They really are. And with what you said, you add 122 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 2: a lot to it because you're right. As a Clippers fan. 123 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: Steve Balmer did dive into names, right, He's like, but 124 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 2: I don't blame him, and listen, we're not as bad 125 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: as what the Sons did. No, at least we had 126 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,239 Speaker 2: other We had a benk. We were more balanced. But 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 2: that idea of like buying names, it's hard to not 128 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: dive into that when you have the money and when 129 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: you have these players that want to do it. But yeah, 130 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: they had no depth. The argument was for the Sons, 131 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: who's your point guard, who's playing defense? Like there was 132 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: a lot of questions and you bring this up just 133 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: because you're a MAVs fan. So you want to point 134 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: out that Nico Harrison might not be the worst, that's 135 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: what you're trying to do it. Yeah, I know what 136 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: you're trying to do. No, Nico Harrison is still the worst. 137 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 2: But what happened with the Suns was malpractice, absolutely, and 138 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 2: so one move was not going to change anything for them. 139 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 2: But I will tell you Jalen Green needed a change 140 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: of scenery, and I've heard that he's actually not probably 141 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: going to be there. Interesting. I think they're trying to 142 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: move him again as well. Okay, so we gotta wait 143 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: and see. We got to wait and see. The point 144 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: is he needed a change of scenery. The expectation that 145 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: was set for him because of where he was drafted. 146 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: They they, everyone did, thought that he was going to 147 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: be a lot better at this point in his career. 148 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 2: It's a short sample size. He's what twenty two, twenty three. 149 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: He's a kid, He's got more to grow. But it 150 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: seems like it wasn't happening in Houston, right. I hope 151 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: it happens wherever he goes on that he has the 152 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: chance to actually dive in and grow and be this 153 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: this score that everybody expected. 154 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 4: Him to be well, and it's you know what it is, Manci, 155 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 4: it's a timeline. Of course the Rockets are ready to now. Yes, 156 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 4: if they weren't ready to win now, I don't think 157 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 4: this move is made because obviously we know we can score, 158 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 4: we know he's dynamic, he's done some good things. Yeah, 159 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 4: but we saw in the playoffs he's not ready noting 160 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 4: the Rockets. 161 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 2: No, sorry, just there's so much to this, right, There's 162 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: so many There's so many layers to it, where like 163 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 2: you say something in triggers a different thought, I say 164 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 2: something and triggers a different thought for you. We talked 165 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: about the Rockets going weeks ago of like going into 166 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 2: the playoffs, it's like they score by committee. But then 167 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,239 Speaker 2: you face a team like the Warriors where they literally 168 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: have the best score probably you know that we've seen 169 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: in the last ten years, and the Rockets just could 170 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 2: not get that person. Fred van Vliet is gonna give 171 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: you a thirty point game every so often, but you 172 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 2: needed a guy who was like, hey we're tied and 173 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 2: it's one minute left, go get me a basket. And 174 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 2: they didn't have that. All of a sudden, they have 175 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 2: that they got that, they got that. And last week 176 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 2: you told me, Remember, I was like, why are we 177 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: hoping all of this for Kevin Durant? You said, it's 178 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant. He's a scorer. And I like this trade, 179 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: I really do. I also am going to give Kevin 180 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: Juransom credit. He could have gone to the East carry 181 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: an easier route to the finals for next year. We 182 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: know that that's open because there's gonna be a lot 183 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: of questions going into the off season. I know the 184 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 2: Pacers are there, but like, I don't think anyone's anticipating 185 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: the Pacers to be there next year because everyone has 186 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: underestimated them. But he could have gone to an East 187 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 2: team like the Miami Heat and taking a quote unquote 188 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: easier route to maybe getting to the finals. He stays 189 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 2: in the West, which is not going to be any. 190 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 3: Easier, and his division alone. 191 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 2: And his division, it is the Spurs who are going 192 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: to be good and really good this year, trust me, 193 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 2: the Rockets, the Mavericks, the Grizzlies. Oh, it's division. And 194 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: like the Grizzlies, like there's question mark question, But you 195 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: also aren't like, well, I'm not dismissing them. It's just 196 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 2: there's question bok of course. So I'm giving kd credit 197 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 2: because you absolutely know he had something to do and 198 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 2: say with this trade, I mean not gonna lie. I 199 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 2: also think he said, hey, break the news when I'm 200 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 2: at Phonetics cut and right before Game seven, can you 201 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 2: do that? Because like Lebron does this, so why don't 202 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 2: I do this? Now, all of that was absolutely controlled, 203 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: and I'm not mad about it, but that it's today, 204 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 2: that it was released today, that the you know the news. 205 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna give Katie credit there also giving credit 206 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: to the Rockets because what have we seen in the 207 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 2: last two weeks for the Rockets, not just signing Katie, 208 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 2: extending email Doka making him one of the highest paid coaches, 209 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: extending Steven Adams making sure, yes, they're like, we're not 210 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: letting this guy go. Utilize this guy. I love Steven 211 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 2: Adams too, Like I don't know what it is about 212 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: him because he's scary, but yet he is very kind, 213 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: very kind, and at the same time, nobody's gonna mess 214 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 2: with him because they're like, no, no, this guy legit 215 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 2: probably yeah, just some damage. 216 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 6: You have. 217 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 4: A person that doesn't overreact to things is the one 218 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: that I'm probably the most. 219 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, and that is Stephen Adams and not to 220 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: mention that he is giant and all. All of that 221 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 2: give credit to what the Rockets are doing. If you're 222 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: a Rockets fan, you should be so proud of your 223 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 2: front office and what they are doing because they are 224 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: doing something to win now. They want to, you know, 225 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:25,119 Speaker 2: give surround email Dooka and this young team alpern Chegoon 226 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: with what they need. Aman Thompson, who I find so 227 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: fun to watch. 228 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: He's so good. 229 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: He's so good. And we have one year and I'm. 230 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: Gonna tell you something. That team is so scary good. 231 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 4: Yeah that we haven't even talked about Jabari Smith yet, 232 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 4: and I think he's gonna benefit the most from Kevin 233 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: Durant being there. Okay, they are very similar in the 234 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 4: way they play. Jabari Smith is like six. He looks 235 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 4: like he's not that tall. He's six nine to sixteen. 236 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: Oh wow, No, he does not look that tall. 237 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 4: And he can handle the ball, he can score. He's 238 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 4: gonna learn so much from Kevin Durant. That team is 239 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 4: scary good. 240 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: Team is scary good. I don't want to face them. 241 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: And like we saw how good they were but one 242 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 2: thing they were missing was a consistent scorer, and they 243 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 2: freaking got it. Carried that guy. They got that guy, 244 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 2: they got the coach, they have the culture, they have 245 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: the pieces around him, and they have the defense. It's like, yeah, 246 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: Katie is not going to be your best defensive player, 247 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: but he's not going to be a statue and come 248 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: down to the final couple of minutes. If you need 249 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: him to play defense, he's gonna do it. 250 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 4: I'm just thinking about the height on that team too. 251 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 4: The only person that's small is Fred banf Other than that, 252 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 4: if Jabari Smith is playing the two, I'm guessing he'll 253 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 4: probably slide down to the two. He's he's six nine 254 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 4: and sixteen. You got Emmon Thompson six eight sixty nine, 255 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 4: he'll be in that range. Kat seven foot almost and 256 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 4: Sengoon sixty eleven, seven foot Steven Adams like, they're yeah big. 257 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: The West right now is like damn, damn. Now we 258 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: were already worried about the Rockets. Now we really have 259 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: to worry about the rockets. And back to the Suns. 260 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 2: This is going to take a minute for this recovered. 261 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: It's gonna take a minute for them to recover. But 262 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: you mentioned how like it's not just getting these names. 263 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 2: You need to establish a culture, right, Yes, Dylan Brooks, 264 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 2: you can hate the guy, you can love the guy 265 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: that is a guy to establish a culture for you. 266 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 4: And they may miss him early on because who's going 267 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 4: to be that defensive guy, that guy that's going to 268 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 4: muck it up and do thesolution. 269 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 3: So I mean, I'm sure they'll find something. 270 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 2: They absolutely will because but yes, that is one thing 271 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: that the Sun's got that can help them start to 272 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 2: develop this culture. This. No, we actually should care about defense. 273 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 2: We should put the effort in because defense is all 274 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: about effort, and if at least one guy is holding 275 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 2: you accountable, then maybe the next guy will hold the 276 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 2: next guy accountable and it's like a ripple effect. Right. 277 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 2: But when you don't have a single person who cares 278 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 2: about defense like that or holds you accountable like that, 279 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 2: then it's easier to just rely on offense. 280 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 4: And it's so weird too, like why do you go 281 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 4: into any season or any game thinking you're just going 282 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 4: to outscore people, like having any like some type of 283 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 4: defensive identity. It just it's weird to me, MANSI that 284 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 4: so many teams are bad defensively it. 285 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 2: Is, but you know, I think it's the three ball, 286 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 2: like just people think like, well, the three is worth 287 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: more than the two. We make more threes, doesn't matter. 288 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 2: And that's it's a bad mentality to have because now 289 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 2: I think we're seeing the league or the sport, the 290 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 2: skill start to even out where it's like, oh no, no, 291 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: we do like the three, but also we need to 292 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: get back to traditional a mid range shot posting up. 293 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: We're kind of leaning into that little by little. 294 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 4: And you have to because I think in the playoffs 295 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 4: is when you have to change. When you have to 296 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 4: change because teams know what you want to do, so 297 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 4: you got to go to your counter as. You got 298 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: to have a counter if you're an NBA player, you 299 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 4: have to have a counter move. And so when the 300 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 4: playoffs start, I think we do see it more and 301 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 4: I think that's why we're saying and. 302 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 2: That's why we're seeing it and the effort. Some teams 303 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: just have the effort all year round, and some turn 304 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 2: it on in the playoffs, but then some don't know how, 305 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 2: don't even know what their effort is, and then you 306 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: see it right before your eyes and it's like, oh 307 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: you you just were not prepared for this next level 308 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,119 Speaker 2: of basketball, which is the playoffs. 309 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 4: And we're talking about teams being able to turn it 310 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 4: on and obviously understand that the game isn't just about 311 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 4: the three pointer. And I think we'll talk about a 312 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 4: team later that actually got that. Now we're facing or 313 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 4: in a big game seven. As we move on throughout the. 314 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: Show, Cooper Flag does he wait to take threes? 315 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 3: I just he can. 316 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: He can't, but that's not right. He's trying. He likes 317 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 2: the mid range. They take it to the back. Yeah, 318 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: and see again, the number one overall pick not coming 319 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 2: in a big dude, But that does not necessarily necessarily 320 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: rely on a three. It's shifting. It's a slow shift, 321 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 2: but we're shifting because yes, not all of us, or 322 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: not all of you are Steph Curry. Like I don't 323 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: to hear that. Yeah, you're right, most of you are 324 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 2: not Steph Curry, and that, I think is the change 325 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 2: that has to happen, even with little kids. I'm sure 326 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: little kids are taking logo threes, but it's like, as 327 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: the coach, you gotta be like, Okay, listen, that's super 328 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: cute and you're awesome, but you're not somebody has to 329 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: tell them that you were not Steph Curry, and there 330 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 2: is We've never seen a Steph Curry until Steph Curry, 331 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 2: for a reason. 332 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: Is gonna be out there crushing kids dream. 333 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go on tory because. 334 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 2: Somebody do it. If you doing early on, it's better. 335 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: It's better so that they can be better all around 336 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 2: athletes or a better athlete in their position by not 337 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 2: just trying to look cool. Because Steph Curry wasn't trying 338 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: to look cool. It's just that was his game. 339 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: That was his game. 340 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: And even when you watch the Matt Davison when he 341 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: went there, he was so small he couldn't go inside. 342 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 2: He couldn't. That's why he's like, what I'm going I 343 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: don't didn't have like weak angles and weak knees like 344 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 2: nobody thought he was gonna get to this in his 345 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: NBA career. 346 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 4: Do you watch his first couple of games at Davidson. 347 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 4: He looked like he wasn't even going to play there. 348 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 4: I'm not even joking. I think was it a documentary 349 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 4: also they were showing it. He looked so bad in 350 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 4: those first couple of game and then practice that once 351 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 4: he finally got it and became Steph Curry. It was 352 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 4: like almost like we didn't even know this was going 353 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 4: to happen either. 354 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't even know, but he figured it out. 355 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: He figured it out for himself. Well. On the other side, 356 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask Mark Stein about this stray, but also 357 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 2: I'm wondering what he thinks of Game seven, which is happening. 358 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 3: Because you I did say it was over, and six you. 359 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: Said it was over. You had no faith in the 360 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 2: Pacers the first. 361 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 3: Time, because I've had no You've had it, but other faith. 362 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: In most people. But I did not, but you did 363 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: not a week ago.

Slim Reap. He doesn't like that name. 375 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: I love that because he has the kind of physique 376 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 2: for it, Like if you just gave his silhouette. 377 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: Just give him a little what's the thing called? 378 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 2: Hold the thing is?

You are listening to Fox 391 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 2: Sports Radio. We have our NBA insider Mark Stein on 392 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: the line. Mark, how are you? How do you feel 393 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 2: about this k D to the Rockets trade? Because Carrie 394 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 2: and I think the Raw gets win big. 395 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm inclined to a green. I think I think 396 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 5: Houston was really uniquely positioned among any of these teams 397 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 5: that we've heard chasing Durant and that they could trade 398 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 5: a Jalen Green and trade Dylan Brooks and give up 399 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 5: the number ten pick in Wednesday's draft, and none of 400 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 5: that really hurts them because they have so many good 401 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 5: young players and so many good draft picks in coming years. 402 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 5: Like they had the flexibility to surrender that package and 403 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 5: it doesn't hurt them. 404 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 8: And we all saw it in the playoffs. They need 405 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 8: a bucket getter, yes, and all season long. 406 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 5: Look, the Rockets could have done this during the season. 407 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 5: They flat out resisted it during the season. 408 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 8: Phoenix has always wanted. 409 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 5: To do a deal with Houston because the Rockets. The 410 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 5: Rockets have control of all their draft picks. I mean 411 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 5: all of the picks that the Suns gave Brooklyn to 412 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 5: get Kevin Durant. 413 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 8: The Rockets got control of them and have them. 414 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 5: The Rockets have Phoenix's first in twenty twenty seven and 415 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 5: twenty twenty nine. So that's what Phoenix wanted and the 416 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 5: Rockets during the season. The Rockets said, look, we are 417 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: not trading with you during the season. We want to 418 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 5: give our young team a chance. See what they do 419 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 5: on the playoff stage the first round. Did not you know, 420 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 5: Houston was a number two seed. It lost, It lost 421 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 5: the Game seven at home, and they had offensive issues. 422 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 8: The whole series. So that did make them realize, Okay, you. 423 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 5: Know we do need we don't have the kind of 424 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 5: flat out instant offense scoring that Kevin Durant can give 425 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 5: you as a catch and shoot maestro from all over 426 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 5: the floor. And again, like you look at what they 427 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 5: gave up, and I just don't think any of it 428 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,959 Speaker 5: would have been harder for any other team in this 429 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 5: discussion to give up the kind of assets that the 430 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 5: Sons wanted. And look, the Sons are trying to come 431 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 5: as close as they could to making up for what 432 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 5: they gave up for Kevin Durant. 433 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 8: Look, they did not come close. 434 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 5: They didn't come close to getting what they gave up 435 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 5: for him, but they were the Sons really wanted a 436 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 5: first round pick on Wednesday night. This deal gives them 437 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 5: that they took the best deal it was on the table. 438 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 7: Mark. 439 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 4: See, that's why we're glad to have you here, just 440 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 4: that inside stuff right there. I mean, knowing that they 441 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 4: could have made this trade during the season, I mean, 442 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 4: obviously I think it was a good move to see 443 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 4: what they had in their young team and the fact 444 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 4: that they can make it happen now is obviously a plus. 445 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 4: But I'm excited about this trade for one reason, and 446 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 4: there's there's multiple reasons I could go, but I'm excited 447 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 4: to see Jabari Smith get a chance to learn from 448 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 4: Kevin Durant. I'm really high on him. I think his 449 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 4: ceiling's really high. What do you see his position being 450 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 4: with Kevin Durant coming in with that team and the 451 00:21:58,560 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 4: pieces they had. 452 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 8: That's you're hitting on. 453 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 5: One of the reasons Houston feels so good about this 454 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 5: trade because Jabari Smith juniors who Phoenix wanted here. I mean, 455 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 5: that's you know, like they couldn't get, you know, Reed Shepherd, 456 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 5: Jabari Smith junior. You know, the Rockets made it clear 457 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 5: like we're not trading you those guys like Okay, Jalen 458 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 5: Green is as far as we'll go. 459 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 8: The number ten pick is as far as we'll go. 460 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 5: And look, Mattisfia was very clear at his end of 461 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,239 Speaker 5: season press conference that the Suns wanted some toughness and 462 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 5: some edge, and so Dylan Brooks does give them that. 463 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 8: But the Rockets also have you. 464 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 5: Know, their most untouchable player was a Men Thompson, and 465 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 5: a Men Thompson will now slot. 466 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 8: Into the Dylan Brooks role. 467 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 5: So that's that's where I'm saying, like Houston was just 468 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 5: uniquely set up that they could give Phoenix things that 469 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 5: the sons want and need, but without really hurting their ceilings. 470 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 5: And so like minnesot know, for Minnesota or Toronto to 471 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 5: do this, it just would have been too costly. 472 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 8: You know. Miami. 473 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 5: Miami just didn't want to give up where they didn't 474 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 5: you know, they have young guys there too that they 475 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 5: just didn't want to part with. So yeah, I mean, 476 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 5: look the fact that Jabari Smith stays and they you know, 477 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 5: Amen Thompson will get a larger role, and they do 478 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 5: you know, have now in KD an adult in the 479 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 5: room who's been all the way to the finish line 480 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 5: and can can show these cause they're they're the Rockets 481 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 5: are a very very very young team. And so I 482 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 5: do think Katie's experience can you know, he's not typically 483 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 5: a vocal leader, that's not really his thing, but they've 484 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,239 Speaker 5: got Fred van Vliet for that, I mean, you know, 485 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 5: and and he he remains in place, and I don't 486 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 5: think Fred van Zliet's going anywhere. 487 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 8: Like they will come to terms on a new deal. 488 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 8: Would be my expectation. 489 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 5: So, like I said, Houston was really set up here 490 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 5: to do this more on terms than on the Sun's terms. 491 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 2: Mark, what is the latest with Jalen Green. I'm really 492 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 2: happy for him because I think he needed to change 493 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: his scenery. But do you think that the Sun's plan 494 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: on moving him. There's kind of mixed reports. 495 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 5: Whether he I mean, look, all I can what they're 496 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 5: signaling to this point is that they want to keep 497 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 5: him now around the league. There's going to be skepticism 498 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 5: even if the Sun say that, because you know, there 499 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 5: will be fit questions between you know, you got Jalen 500 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 5: Green and Devin Booker and they still have Bradley Beal 501 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 5: on the roster and they just don't have an easy 502 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 5: exit route to partying with Bradley Beal. I mean, he's 503 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 5: got two years, almost one hundred and eleven million dollars 504 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 5: left on his deal and it's just a buyout will 505 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 5: be very costly and there are a bunch of cap 506 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 5: complexities there that I don't want to. 507 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 8: Bore you guys with. 508 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 5: But for now, that is what the That is the 509 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 5: messaging that is coming out of Phoenix is they want 510 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 5: Jalen Green and look and that is what the Sun 511 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 5: are going to say. They can't even announce this trade 512 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 5: until July sixth, until we get to the new salary 513 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 5: cap year, and then of course the first week in 514 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 5: July there's always a moratorium. They can't do anything until 515 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 5: the moratorium lifts. So on Wednesday night, we're gonna have 516 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 5: to sit through the charade of Houston making the number 517 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 5: ten pick when everybody in the league will know it's Phoenix, 518 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 5: and whoever it is that young man will have to 519 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 5: put a Rockets cap on his head. And that's just 520 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 5: that's just the way it works in the NBA. 521 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 4: And collect and collectively we will all cheer and that 522 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 4: like we were surprised as well, So I think that's 523 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 4: part of it, Mark, But I want to I want 524 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 4: to kind of switch scares a little bit. I know 525 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 4: there's a there's a big Game seven tonight, that's that's 526 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: happening between the Pacers and the OKC Thunder. I was 527 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 4: on a record Mark saying that OKC was gonna win 528 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 4: Game five by double digits and and and win this 529 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 4: series in six. But the Pacers, just like they have 530 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 4: been all playoff long, they answered the bell, even with 531 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 4: the hamper Tyrese Haliburton. What do you see happening tonight 532 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 4: in Game seven in OKAC? Who do you think is 533 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 4: going to be able to hoist the trophy tonight? 534 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 5: Well, look, history says that only four road teams have 535 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 5: won a Game seven in the finals, but the last 536 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 5: time it happened in twenty sixteen, the road team did 537 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 5: win Game seven, and it's going to be like, look, 538 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 5: I'm not smart enough to sit here and tell you 539 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 5: I know what's going to happen, but either way, we 540 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 5: are headed for you know, Oklahoma City. 541 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 8: Even though technically. 542 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 5: According to the NBA rule book, Seattles championship is on. 543 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 8: Their ledger, the Thunder have. 544 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,479 Speaker 5: Always tried to say the Sonics history is their history. 545 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 5: Our history is separate. So the Thunder would treat this 546 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 5: as the first championship in franchise history if they're fortunate 547 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 5: enough to finish this thing off at home, and being 548 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 5: at home is a massive advantage, not just because it's 549 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 5: their floor, but the you know, the OKC crowd is 550 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 5: as loud as it gets in the league. And then 551 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 5: the Pacers on the other side, I mean, if they 552 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 5: have one more. 553 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 8: Surprise in them and it's been just I think they 554 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 8: will go down if they can win one more game 555 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 8: as the most surprising Cinderella NBA champion we've ever seen. 556 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 2: Wow Wow, surpassing in twenty eleven, again surpassing the MAVs 557 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 2: in twenty eleven. 558 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 8: I mean you any team, I mean any team you 559 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 8: wish to name. You know, you could say the MAVs 560 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 8: in twenty eleven. 561 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 5: You know, the Houston Rockets in ninety five were technically 562 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 5: a six seed, but they were the defending champions and 563 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 5: traded for Clyde Drexler at midseason and had a team 564 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 5: Elijah one. The Bullets in seventy eight were forty four 565 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 5: and thirty eight. That's the worst record for an NBA champion, 566 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 5: but they had Elvin Hayes and west Unselt, who were, 567 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 5: you know, surefire hall of famers, And we knew it 568 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 5: then when they were playing that they were Hall of famers. 569 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 8: Queen the Pacers. They squeaked to fifty wins. They were 570 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 8: ten and fifteen in December. Their two best players were 571 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 8: drafted twelfth and twenty seventh. Overall, this is not the 572 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 8: profile of a championship team. 573 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 5: And again, they still have to win one more game, 574 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 5: and it's going to be the hardest game to win. 575 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 8: But if the. 576 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 5: Pacers can find a way, to me, you cannot find 577 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 5: a grander Cinderella in NBA history than them winning this championship. 578 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 4: And mark. With that being said, let's flip it. If 579 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 4: OKC loses, what does that mean? 580 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 5: If OKAC loses, it would obviously be devastating because they 581 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 5: had one of the greatest regular season resumes ever and 582 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 5: that all gets thrown out the window if you don't 583 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 5: win it all. You'll just ask the seventy three win Warriors. 584 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 5: They didn't win that year, and you almost never hear 585 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 5: anybody bring up that team which started twenty four and oh, which, 586 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 5: in all of my life covering this league is one 587 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 5: of the most amazing things I've ever seen, and I 588 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 5: don't think it will ever be duplicated, a team starting 589 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 5: a season like that, But nobody talks about any of 590 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 5: that stuff because that team didn't win at all. That 591 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 5: team is some ways forgotten now, but as devastating as 592 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 5: it would be. You know, if we want to talk 593 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 5: about teams that are set up amazingly for the future, 594 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 5: I mean OKAC is you know, they're in better shape 595 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 5: than Houston when it comes to their young core, the 596 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 5: assets there. I mean, they have the optionality to keep 597 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 5: making moves, keep making their team stronger. And that's why 598 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 5: if the Thunder win, you're going to hear all the 599 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 5: dynasty talk. You know, they are probably the one team 600 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 5: in the NBA that could win in this current state 601 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 5: we're in where there's been seven you know, we're headed 602 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 5: for a seven champion in seven. 603 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 8: Years, which has never happened in the NBA. Seven different 604 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 8: champions in seven seasons. 605 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 5: But the Thunder are set up for long term success 606 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 5: no matter what happens tonight. But they don't want to 607 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 5: think about that, talk about that. I mean, they don't 608 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 5: even want to hear any of this, Like they it 609 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 5: would be crushing for them to lose this now because 610 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 5: like you know, like Carry said, when they won Game five, 611 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 5: you you know, you think they're in control. You know, 612 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 5: the Game five winner goes on to win the finals 613 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 5: I think seventy. 614 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 8: Five percent of the time, So. 615 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 5: It would be it would be devastating for them, Letten. 616 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 5: It'll be devastating for the Pacers, I mean too, if 617 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 5: they can take it all the way to the end 618 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 5: and fall short. I mean, that's another fascinating question, how 619 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 5: will history look at these guys if they fall one 620 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 5: win short of a championship? 621 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, last one here, Mark. Do you think the finals 622 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 2: MVP is up for grabs on either side? Good question? 623 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, probably. I mean I'm certainly up for grabs on 624 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 5: the Indie side because Haliburton has been injured and so 625 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 5: he's you know, he's not going to be a full 626 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 5: capacity tonight eater, So that certainly opens the door for Siakam. 627 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 8: I can't really see anybody. 628 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 5: With SCA winning it if OKC wins win Game seven, But. 629 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's you know, it's fairly up for grabs. 630 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 8: I guess is wha put it? 631 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 4: What about TJ McConnell. He's been a spot Mark, he's 632 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 4: been excellent. I know, I know it's I know that's 633 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 4: not happening, but I just love He'll. 634 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 8: Probably have to settle for just be. 635 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: Right. Yeah, no, for being the hero in Indiana. Maybe 636 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: it never has to pay for another meal. Mark, Thank 637 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: you so much for joining us on this Sunday Enjoy 638 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 2: Game seven.

Here we go. 834 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 6: It's funny. 835 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 7: I don't know. 836 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 6: I don't know why I've discussed so much in our 837 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 6: sport and why is the all be all of everything. 838 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 6: You sit here and you tell me, you know Alan 839 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 6: I Everson and Charles Barkley and Steve Nash, you know, 840 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 6: you know, wasn't unbelievable, Like, oh, they can't be talked 841 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,359 Speaker 6: about or discussed with these guys is because this guy 842 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 6: one one ring or one two rings or one like 843 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 6: it's just it's just weird to me. It's like Sam 844 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 6: Peyton Manning can't be in the same room with Brady 845 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 6: or Mahomes because he only has one ring. They don't 846 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 6: never discuss that in the sport or telling me that 847 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 6: Dann Marino is not the greatest slinger of all time, 848 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 6: or he can't be in the room with those guys 849 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 6: because he didn't win a championship. They don't discuss those things. 850 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, so many things right. 851 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 4: Let me go first, Lebron moves the goal post more 852 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 4: than anyone in the history, but to benefit himself. 853 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 2: That's all this is. I mean, nobody's talking about that. Obviously. 854 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 4: We know that in the Annals of History. We put 855 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 4: the Goat conversation based on Michael Jordan. He has six 856 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 4: he has more than you. He doesn't have more than 857 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 4: Bill Russell. Nobody says Bill Russell is the best player 858 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 4: ever because he's won eleven rings. That's not part of 859 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 4: the discussion. The discussions only solely based around Jordan and 860 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 4: Lebron when it comes to rings. Because obviously, physically, we 861 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 4: look at Lebron and say, he's the most physically imposing 862 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 4: player we've ever seen in the history of basketball, at 863 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 4: his size to speed, what he does, that doesn't make 864 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 4: him the best player ever though, And I think the 865 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 4: conversation surrounding it usually does come around the rings with 866 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 4: them two, but that's not the whole NBA. And so 867 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 4: the fact that he says these things, it's only to 868 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 4: benefit himself, and then he likes to bring and drag 869 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 4: other people names to the conversation when it's like, no, Lebron, 870 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 4: just say what you really want to say. And if 871 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 4: he says that one day, then I will probably be like, 872 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 4: you know what, Lebron, I get you now. But he 873 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 4: never does. 874 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,760 Speaker 2: No, there's nothing at this point, Lebron. You actually cannot 875 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 2: make anyone I think change their minds on their opinion 876 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 2: of you because of the way you present yourself, saying 877 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 2: after the wasn't it the twenty sixteen NBA Finals that 878 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 2: he's like, this is what makes me the best because 879 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 2: they beat the Warriors when the Warriors had the best record. 880 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:43,720 Speaker 2: Remember yep, what you said that in twenty sixteen. Okay, Okay, 881 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 2: Like perfect example, Bill Russell, he's not in the goat discussions. 882 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 2: Every now and then there is somebody who may bring 883 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 2: him up right and they're like, no, he's my goat, 884 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 2: and it's like okay, but in reality, we know he 885 00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: has the most rings and nobody, nobody cares about that. No, no, yes, Lebron. 886 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 2: There are a ton of great players that deserve the 887 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 2: credit and recognition even though they haven't won a ring, 888 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 2: but we do. Allen Iverson gets brought up all the 889 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: time of how great he was, Charles Barkley gets brought 890 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 2: up all the time of how great he was. I 891 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 2: that's a lie. And also when you come down to it, 892 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: and if you have to. 893 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 10: Pick who the best player is and they're all the same, 894 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 10: then you go to rings, like like if everything else 895 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 10: checks off and you need one other factor to determine 896 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 10: why you're better, we're gonna go to rings, my guy, 897 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 10: Like everything else can be exactly the same. 898 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 2: And so it's just like you, I cannot believe how 899 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 2: many times you have changed the goal, switch the goal, 900 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 2: the goal post, switch, the storyline, change the conversation to 901 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 2: benefit you talk about Dan Marino. No, no, no, that 902 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 2: is the conversation dan Marino. They're like, no, he never won. 903 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 2: He can't be in the conversation. What do we talk 904 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 2: I hear that all the time. I legit, hear that 905 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: all the time about Dan Marino. And it's a perfect 906 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: season right that they didn't make it. Yes, he he 907 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 2: is not in the conversation. Peyton Manning has run twice 908 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 2: and yes they mentioned he's got two, but Tom Brady's 909 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 2: got six, Like what are this is what? He literally 910 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 2: just lies through his teeth. 911 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 3: Only to benefit himself. 912 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 4: And that's the part that's the crazy scary part about 913 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,399 Speaker 4: it because he talks so much. I think the other 914 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,919 Speaker 4: part about it from like priors, right, like the other 915 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,720 Speaker 4: greats that we've talked about are discussed in the past, 916 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 4: they didn't have as many platforms to speak, and I 917 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 4: think that benefited them so so so much because what 918 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,399 Speaker 4: you just said, things that you said nine years ago 919 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 4: still holds weight because. 920 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 3: You said it. 921 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 2: I can really yes, And that's. 922 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 4: The part where he has to be careful, and I 923 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 4: just don't think he gets that part of it. We 924 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 4: heard you say nine years ago you are the goat, 925 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 4: like put the crown to me, I'm the king, Like 926 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 4: we've seen that. So the fact that everybody's not on 927 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 4: board with that doesn't make them all wrong. 928 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 3: It just means you've put yourself in that position. 929 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 2: Correct. My problem here is that I agree with the 930 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 2: overall point that he's trying to make, right good point. 931 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 2: You make a good point, but then you make it 932 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 2: about yourself, and that's where you lose us because you 933 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 2: could have not mentioned you or like, I don't we 934 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 2: know what you're trying to prove because you're trying to 935 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:26,360 Speaker 2: be the goat and everyone's you know, in every conversation, 936 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 2: but you could have had I agree that sometimes winning 937 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 2: a ring sometimes holds too much value as to why 938 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 2: you want to diminish someone's career. I agree with that. Yes, 939 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 2: there it's been unfair for some players where it's like 940 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 2: they were freaking badass and they just didn't get there. 941 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 2: But then this causes people to come out like Tracy 942 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 2: McGrady comes out and says, oh, you switch me with Kobe. 943 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,919 Speaker 2: You don't think I could have done that, my guy. 944 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 2: You had Yelming on the rockets, you had and and 945 00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 2: Shane Battier. I'm like trying to remember Stephen is scull 946 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 2: out with the long hand. You had a good team. 947 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 2: What are you talking about? And you did not get 948 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 2: out of the first round. Also, you were part of 949 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 2: the Orlando Magic when the East was still not great 950 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 2: and you didn't do anything and you were a star 951 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 2: in Orlando. Like I that's what is upsetting. It's like 952 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,319 Speaker 2: then other people chime in and you know the joke 953 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 2: of like they're they're in clutch sports pockets, yes, and 954 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 2: it's like it feels like they are. Why are you 955 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 2: saying this, Tracy McGrady about Kobe Bryant. We saw Kobe 956 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 2: with our We saw you with our own eyes. We 957 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 2: saw you. You were great. You did not need to 958 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 2: bring up Kobe and say if you switch us, I 959 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 2: could have done that. Yeah. 960 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 4: No, it's just trying to make a point. But you 961 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 4: know him and Kobe are really really tight. 962 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 3: And so. 963 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 2: Kobe, Kobe's looking down right now, like, Bro, I'll haunt 964 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 2: you in your sleep. 965 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 4: Him and Kobe are really really tight. But the fact 966 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 4: that I know he was just trying to prove a point. 967 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 4: And that's the thing what I just said, though, like 968 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,280 Speaker 4: we're giving all these people of the platform to speak 969 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,759 Speaker 4: these things, right, And when you get out of the 970 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 4: game and you've been removed for a while, your perception 971 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 4: of your time playing and your situation. Sometimes we talked 972 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 4: about moving the gold post. Sometimes that gets a little 973 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 4: skewed even to me, Like I can see it as 974 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 4: a former player when I look at the game now 975 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 4: and be like, if I was planning in this era, 976 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 4: I have thirty picks. It's like your interpretation of the game. 977 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 4: We always see it as not being as good as 978 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 4: it was when we played, because if it was, then 979 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 4: we could still play it forty right, Like that would 980 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,879 Speaker 4: be the thinking. And so I know where these things 981 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 4: are coming from. But I just want all of them 982 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 4: to pump the brakes and just your time's over. My dude, 983 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 4: you had your chance. We all saw it. We don't 984 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 4: need to relive it. We know this isn't like it 985 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 4: was forty years ago when we weren't you know, we 986 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 4: were two years old or not born. We witnessed it. 987 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 4: So you had your chance, you were in a good situation, 988 00:48:58,239 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 4: didn't get it done. 989 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 2: Just live with that, but also like Lebron, like you 990 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 2: are greet you didn't need to do any of this, 991 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 2: and you the fact that you're still doing it, it's 992 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 2: kind of like my guy, Like, like you said, you're done. 993 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 2: There is a new generation of players, and instead of 994 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,920 Speaker 2: you trying to squeeze the juice out of your own talent, 995 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 2: you did not need to do that. You are one 996 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 2: of the greats. Nobody is denying that. And to some 997 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: people you are their number one, but to majority you're not. 998 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 2: You're you're a number two, maybe a number three, because 999 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 2: you keep rubbing people the wrong way in that part. 1000 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 4: Imagine Jordan comes on NBC this season and the whole campaign, 1001 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 4: the whole season, he talks about He's the greatest. You 1002 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 4: don't think he would take it. He would get some 1003 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,439 Speaker 4: some flak for that as well. Like that's part of it. 1004 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 4: It's because you're saying it. Jordan has never been on 1005 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,879 Speaker 4: record saying I'm the goat. Whenever that conversation comes up, 1006 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 4: he always deflects that he does. 1007 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 3: And that's what you should do. 1008 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I would love Michael on a broadcast just 1009 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 2: score the Earth. Yeah, No, like if they bring it 1010 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 2: up to him, No, I'm the King. I'm actually the king. 1011 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 2: This guy is a cuckoo bird. He's great, but he's 1012 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 2: a kuckoo bird, and I am that would be great. 1013 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,759 Speaker 2: But you're right, he's never done that. Kobe also never 1014 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:16,360 Speaker 2: did that. No, And even like Shaq, Shaq who is 1015 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 2: great and he thinks he's the greatest big man. He 1016 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,400 Speaker 2: thinks he's the greatest big man. But he'll also like 1017 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 2: give his flowers, and there is like a difference where 1018 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 2: it's like Shaq has never changed his mind. But he 1019 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 2: also doesn't move a goal post. He wants the big 1020 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 2: man to be a big man, and that's how he's 1021 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 2: gonna criticize you. If you're a big man who likes 1022 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,720 Speaker 2: to shoot the three, he's gonna take you down because 1023 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 2: he wants you to play like he did. He's holding 1024 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,359 Speaker 2: the same standard Shaq when he talks about the big 1025 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:44,800 Speaker 2: man exactly, but when when it comes to Lebron, you 1026 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 2: hit it right on the head. It's just moving the 1027 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 2: goal post every single time, whether it's a little bit 1028 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,760 Speaker 2: or a lot to benefit him, And it's so obvious 1029 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 2: to everyone and their mom, but yet he keeps doing it, 1030 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: and I feel like he doesn't realize that it's diminished 1031 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 2: his career. Yes, you're already great, Lebron. You're a great, 1032 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 2: no question, no question. I think also it's kind of 1033 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 2: just like, all right, you trying to convince us, you're 1034 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 2: trying to convince yourself. Who are you trying to convince? 1035 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 2: At this point? That's a great point because you've been 1036 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 2: around for so long. We have seen your career. There 1037 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 2: are no question marks as to what you can do 1038 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 2: and what you've done on the court, and you've had 1039 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,399 Speaker 2: great moments. But rights, it's okay, it's giving insecure, Yes, 1040 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 2: a thousand per Yes, Yes, unreal. 1041 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,479 Speaker 4: I just saw that game, the game you're talking about, 1042 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 4: the twenty sixteen game seven when they came back to 1043 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 4: beat Golden State in Golden State and he had. 1044 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 2: A great game, and and. 1045 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 3: I literally literally was watching it. 1046 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 4: I was like, man, I actually like Lebron right now 1047 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 4: in that moment, like I was like, oh, I like that. 1048 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 4: And now you fast forward nine years and I can't 1049 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 4: stand what he does. 1050 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:53,280 Speaker 3: It's crazy. 1051 00:51:53,480 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 2: I have a Cleveland Cavaliers Wow MVP cood sure Lebron 1052 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 2: James shirt. You've never seen me wear it, and I 1053 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 2: love wearing my all my sports stuff. Maybe I'll maybe 1054 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,920 Speaker 2: I'll pull it out. I have that. I have a 1055 00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 2: Miami Heat Lebron James shirt. I liked Lebron. I was 1056 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 2: a fan of Lebron. When he came to LA I 1057 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 2: still was like, okay, fine, you joined the team that 1058 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 2: I hate the most, the Lakers. I thought you could 1059 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,880 Speaker 2: have been you want to call yourself the King. I 1060 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 2: thought you could have been the King of the East 1061 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 2: for your entire career, dominated the East. You came to 1062 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 2: the West and it's been mid, been mid for the Lakers. Yes, 1063 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 2: you won in twenty twenty, and there will always be 1064 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 2: a star on that one because it was not a 1065 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,360 Speaker 2: normal year. Not that you didn't win it. Somebody was 1066 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 2: gonna win it. But if you were to describe every 1067 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:54,879 Speaker 2: championship team with one sentence, right you get to twenty twenty, 1068 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: you're like, oh, that's the bubble year. Like, there's no 1069 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,160 Speaker 2: way you don't mention that, right, There's no way, you know. 1070 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 2: So it's it's different no matter how you slice it 1071 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 2: and dice it. It is different that you guys wanted 1072 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,280 Speaker 2: that year and you won the d season Tournament. Whoop 1073 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 2: de dooo, Basel, What does it all mean? Absolutely nothing? 1074 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 2: In the grand scheme of things. 1075 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 4: Well, let Lebron tell it. He's going to move the 1076 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 4: gold post and it would be the greatest championship of 1077 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:16,799 Speaker 4: all time, of. 1078 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 2: All time, that one the in season tournament against the Pacers. Yes, unreal. 1079 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 2: It's it's really just like, Lebron, stop talk, king. 1080 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 3: Let us do it for you. You are great, Lebron. 1081 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 4: You there is no questions like, we don't need any 1082 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 4: assurance of that, reassurance of that you are great. 1083 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 3: Lebron. 1084 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 4: Listen to me, if you are listening right now, you 1085 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 4: don't have to speak about your greatness. You're the king. 1086 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 4: If you want to be called that, I won't call 1087 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 4: you that again. But right now you're the king. 1088 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 2: Right now, you're the king. Listen, I'm getting into this. 1089 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:51,879 Speaker 2: What is this? 1090 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 3: I no, no, but I'm just this is a Swan song. 1091 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:57,879 Speaker 2: Swan song. 1092 00:53:58,080 --> 00:53:58,839 Speaker 3: You don't have to do it. 1093 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:05,320 Speaker 4: We're gonna do it for you, no matter if your first, second, third, fourth, fifth, 1094 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:06,960 Speaker 4: like you did with the ring thing, You're going to 1095 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 4: be good when you're out. 1096 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 2: But you got one you did not deliver. This was 1097 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 2: really frustrating to hear. And then the discourse continued and 1098 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 2: that made it even more frustrating because other people decided 1099 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 2: to chime in. But I do hear what you're saying, 1100 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 2: shedding light on like being a former player and looking 1101 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 2: at the game now, how you tend to want to 1102 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 2: feel like I could have done this had the game 1103 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 2: been like this for me, that makes sense to me. 1104 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 2: I get that. I guess, like even I think about 1105 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 2: my you know, illustrious high school volleyball career, was like, man, 1106 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 2: I could have been better, but I didn't take it 1107 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 2: seriously or he didn't put in the effort or all 1108 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 2: the things, and so I get that, but I didn't 1109 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 2: like it. And it's just as simple as Lebron, you 1110 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 2: don't need to do this. 1111 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 3: I just want to put a finger over his mouth 1112 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:00,280 Speaker 3: and just like just hush. 1113 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 2: So like in Dumb and Dummer when he puts his 1114 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,640 Speaker 2: finger on the girl's lip and touches and yeah, just go, 1115 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:10,400 Speaker 2: just go, just go. Lebron, You're great. You're great. Nobody's 1116 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:14,319 Speaker 2: denying it. Nobody's denying it. Well, on the other side 1117 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 2: of this, there is a rookie NFL player that is 1118 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 2: great but off the field not making the greatest decision. 1119 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 2: So we're gonna talk to Adam Kaplan our NFL insider.

We are getting ready to speak 1133 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 2: to our NFL insider, Adam Kaplan, who is here with us. 1134 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 2: Adam Happy Game seven in the NBA. Are you going 1135 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:14,399 Speaker 2: to watch the game? 1136 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:15,320 Speaker 7: I will? 1137 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1138 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 11: Look, I know the TV rings aren't great, but you 1139 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:20,280 Speaker 11: know what it's it is a Game seven. It's gone 1140 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:21,440 Speaker 11: farther than most people thought. 1141 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:21,839 Speaker 2: Yep. 1142 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 11: It's been a very interesting series. I mean, it's just 1143 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 11: a shame that they don't have the national appeal. And 1144 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 11: that's that's the way it works in television, is that 1145 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 11: if you're not in a big meet and market if 1146 00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,840 Speaker 11: both or not, if they're in mid, mid or lower tier, 1147 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 11: it's just people are just not gonna watch generally. 1148 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 2: But but real quick on this marketing, they've done a 1149 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 2: bad job because when it's the super Bowl, I see 1150 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,399 Speaker 2: super Bowl left and right. It doesn't matter who's in it. 1151 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 2: It's just super Bowl. 1152 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 7: Here, it's a great point. 1153 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 2: In the finals, I haven't seen anything. 1154 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 11: Well, here's the thing, guys. Look, first of all, the 1155 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 11: super Bowl is one game. Right, Sure, it's a it's 1156 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:56,040 Speaker 11: not a best out of seven. 1157 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:57,799 Speaker 7: That's that's part of it. 1158 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 11: You're you're, you're just it's like the biggest game in 1159 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 11: professional sports. That's the way on your point, Montee, that's 1160 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,399 Speaker 11: way it's been marketed. So I've covered the league. That's 1161 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,799 Speaker 11: just the way it is. Whereas the NBA, and you're right, 1162 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 11: it like in the NBA. Look if it's if these 1163 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 11: are not New York, Boston, Philly, Golden State, well at 1164 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 11: a point, the gold Seat doesn't have the cashe that 1165 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 11: they once what but still it's not a national team 1166 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 11: like the NFL will tell you when when the schedule 1167 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 11: makers make the schedule, they have a group of small 1168 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 11: group of less than ten teams they called national teams. 1169 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 11: Those are the teams that the networks won on television 1170 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 11: the most. 1171 00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 7: That's the way it is. 1172 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 2: It's the way it is. Before I give you a 1173 00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 2: real question, what are the two greatest words in sports? 1174 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 2: Is it Game seven or is it super Bowl? 1175 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: Oh? 1176 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:46,479 Speaker 7: Oh super Bowl? 1177 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 11: Well see this, then let me let me expand on 1178 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 11: your point about just the matchups and so forth. 1179 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:54,959 Speaker 7: The people are gonna watch really no matter what, that's true. 1180 00:57:56,040 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 11: The super Bowl has the most crossover appeal to nonsports fans. 1181 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 11: Why you've got little little friendly wagering, you've got it's 1182 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 11: the biggest thing. 1183 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 7: Everybody gets to go. 1184 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 11: My mother, okay, my ninety five year old mother would 1185 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 11: ask me for years who I liked in the game. 1186 00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 11: She wasn't because what they have the what are they 1187 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,800 Speaker 11: called squares or something? Yes, yes, yeah, she would play 1188 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 11: squares at the Super Bowl parties. And that there you go, MONSI, 1189 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 11: it is crossover a peal. She doesn't know anything, She 1190 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 11: probably coudn't even name who the teams are, but she 1191 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 11: wants to play squares. It's just the crossover peal. We 1192 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 11: don't have that unfortunately in other sports, like we have 1193 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 11: in the NFL. 1194 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,680 Speaker 2: I mean, you're right. Everybody loves squares and they doesn't 1195 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 2: matter who's playing, who's what. People go to Super Bowl 1196 00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 2: parties just because it's a party. Yeah, no, okay, you're 1197 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 2: you're right, all right. First real question here, Adam news 1198 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 2: this week that Shador Sanders twice this month cited for 1199 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 2: speeding over one hundred miles an hour. This is just 1200 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 2: a bad start for a fifth round pick in a 1201 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: situation where there's five quarterbacks on the roster. What do 1202 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 2: the Browns do with this? 1203 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 11: Well, look, they've talked to him, they know everything about it. 1204 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 11: They know it's not just once, it's twice. We're not 1205 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000 Speaker 11: surprised if he's fined. Fine, sometimes they're not made public, 1206 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 11: but look, they have to set an example here. This 1207 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,720 Speaker 11: is just not good because, for one, understand, he did 1208 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 11: some good things in the OT program. I know it's 1209 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 11: the off season, you don't put a lot of stock 1210 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 11: into it, but there's a situation here, folks, where you've 1211 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 11: got four quarterbacks. They don't know their starting quarterback is 1212 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 11: going to be. There's an opportunity for him to. 1213 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 7: Carve out a role this season. 1214 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 11: And as a matter of fact, once you get once 1215 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,200 Speaker 11: they get out of the playoff rates, which should be 1216 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 11: around that Thanksgiving, if not before. That's typically when you 1217 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 11: look at the younger, not just younger quarterback, you start 1218 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 11: looking towards next season. 1219 00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 7: So, yeah, this is not good. 1220 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,480 Speaker 11: You don't need this kind of distraction, and it just 1221 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 11: goes to show shows you there's a sign of maturity. 1222 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 7: He's got it, He's got no better and that's just 1223 00:59:59,000 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 7: the way it is. 1224 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 4: I think a follow up on that same topic is 1225 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 4: if this was any other fifth round pick, would they 1226 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 4: be released right now? In your opinion? What do you think? 1227 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 11: That's a good question. You know, that's a really good question. 1228 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:13,480 Speaker 11: Well speeding, okay, wasn't going to d u y or 1229 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:15,200 Speaker 11: anything like that. It's being still not good, so one 1230 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 11: could get hurt obviously, right, you don't want to have that, 1231 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 11: but that because of what happened, I would say probably not. 1232 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 7: No, I get the question. It's a fair question. 1233 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 11: But if there was something more serious then and that's 1234 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 11: completely different. Absolutely you consider doing it even even though 1235 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 11: it's should or Now, what if let's put it this way, 1236 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 11: what if it had not been Shud or Sanders but 1237 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 11: a second or first round pick. You know, that's that's 1238 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 11: a good place in to carry's question and point the 1239 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 11: higher the draft pick, the greater challenge. Just the way 1240 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 11: this league is, you could say whatever you want, it's truth. 1241 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good. Moving on from there. You have a 1242 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 2: follow up on this one. Okay, perfect? All right? Adam? 1243 01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 2: Last week I asked you about JayR Alexander Civilly joining 1244 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 2: the Ravens and you did not think that was going 1245 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 2: to happen. It obviously did? 1246 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 7: Was this? 1247 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 2: Why? 1248 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1249 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the. 1250 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 11: Money he was They were not signing for ten to 1251 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,439 Speaker 11: twelve million, which is really what he should have gotten. Yep, 1252 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,800 Speaker 11: the real money is four million dollars like that? 1253 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 3: Really? Is that it? 1254 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 2: Adam? 1255 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 11: Yes, woes how look, I know he wanted to play 1256 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:29,080 Speaker 11: with Lamar. 1257 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 7: I know it's part of it. 1258 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 11: There's a saying in the National Football League, wen you 1259 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 11: he had a number of teams interested in him. Now, 1260 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,200 Speaker 11: usually Carrie knows this, Usually I have leverage. However, if 1261 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 11: they're all offering four to six million a season, you 1262 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,800 Speaker 11: just go. You go somewhere where you know you could win. Now, 1263 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:49,919 Speaker 11: my thought process was when you asked me that there's 1264 01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 11: no way he's going to get less than ten to 1265 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 11: twelve million in the season. I understand their concerns about 1266 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 11: his injury history. 1267 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 2: That was my fire. 1268 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 11: I also said he wouldn't make anywhere close to seventeen 1269 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 11: and a half million, that that was true, that was 1270 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 11: what he was due. I'm guaranteed with green Bay. But 1271 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 11: it is surprising that the real money is only four million. 1272 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:10,240 Speaker 11: That that's a stunner to me. And here's the other thing, 1273 01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 11: because I've learned this over the years. If you have 1274 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 11: an offer like this, unless Baltimore is gonna put off 1275 01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 11: the table, why don't you just wait till start a 1276 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,640 Speaker 11: training camp or wait till somebody gets hurt. You know, 1277 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 11: that's just the way. Unfortunately, that's what happens. I mean, 1278 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 11: players get hurt, then you have more leverage. I'm and 1279 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 11: I know John Thornton. You know his agent who played 1280 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,280 Speaker 11: in the league, and you know John's it's on his call. 1281 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,920 Speaker 11: He just tells him what's out there and what the 1282 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:37,840 Speaker 11: money looks like, what other teams are offering. And I 1283 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:41,320 Speaker 11: know there was more money out there for him, But 1284 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 11: to take four million, to me stunning, that's just I Look, 1285 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 11: I'm not him. 1286 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 7: So he's made a lot of money. 1287 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 11: His curse so he's he could, he could, he could 1288 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 11: say he could just take something low in June. 1289 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 7: It's still surprising, let's be honest about it. 1290 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's he played seven games last season, none 1291 01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 2: after thanks Giving. 1292 01:02:57,920 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 7: But you know what, he's only twenty eight. 1293 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 11: And think about this, right, Baltimore had a problem at 1294 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:06,800 Speaker 11: corner last season. Nate Wiggins did a good job and 1295 01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 11: and you you look at their situation. They knew going 1296 01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 11: They brought in Chiudobi, a woozy. He was a good player, 1297 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 11: but he's been hurt a lot. He'll be a backup. 1298 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 11: And they felt like they needed another starting corner because 1299 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 11: Marlon Humphrey what they like. He starts obviously, but when 1300 01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 11: they go to Nickel, they like to have him play inside. 1301 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 11: They didn't have another cornerback they felt that could start 1302 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 11: or could come in. And that's where JayR Alexander comes in. Now, 1303 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 11: by the way, four million dollars is really backup money 1304 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 11: the National Football I gotta be honest with you, Yes, 1305 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 11: that's the surprising thing. Carry I don't know about you, 1306 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,439 Speaker 11: but that that to me to take four million. 1307 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 7: There's upside to it to get the six, but I 1308 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 7: just I don't buy it. 1309 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:49,320 Speaker 11: I would not if I was advising, I said, let's 1310 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 11: I mean, if you want to make some money, why 1311 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 11: don't you wait. 1312 01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 7: To have real leverage to get real money? But you didn't. 1313 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I'm definitely surprised. I mean I've known 1314 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:57,440 Speaker 4: I've known Jayere since he was a kid. I mean, 1315 01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:59,520 Speaker 4: I've known him when he was at Louisville and sure, 1316 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 4: always eager to play. I mean, and you know, NFL 1317 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 4: changes changes you, obviously once you started to make the 1318 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 4: big bucks. But he was a kid that just wants 1319 01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 4: to play. Adam, that's that's you know. He likes to compete, 1320 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,200 Speaker 4: and likes to talk, likes to do all those things. 1321 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 11: And so go helps them. By the way, Baltimore that 1322 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 11: they are now stacked. Nate Wiggins had a good rookie season. Yeah, 1323 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:22,040 Speaker 11: Alexander Humphrey a woozy. Now now they've got and TJ. 1324 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 11: Tampa was the fourth rounder, was hurt last season, so 1325 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 11: now they've got legitimate corners. This is this is really 1326 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,560 Speaker 11: good for matchup purposes, no question. And Gyr again months 1327 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 11: you're right throwing it back to you. He's had a 1328 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 11: number of injuries. He missed twenty games the last two seasons, 1329 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,360 Speaker 11: but he's only twenty eight and the talent is not 1330 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,800 Speaker 11: the table from one understand, was pretty good lest season 1331 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 11: when he played. 1332 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 7: He just you can't pay guys if they're not healthy. 1333 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 2: You are listening to Fox Sports Radio. We've got our 1334 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 2: NFL insider Adam Kaplan joining us right now. All right, 1335 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:58,200 Speaker 2: Moving on to Travis Kelcey. Apparently he's lost twenty five pounds. 1336 01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 2: He's trying to get back in it. 1337 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:01,120 Speaker 7: Maybe got a. 1338 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 2: Better haircut and anyone he needs one, he does. I 1339 01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,840 Speaker 2: don't know if that was guys. You know he's he's happy, 1340 01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:08,960 Speaker 2: he's in love. You let yourself go, you let your 1341 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:13,080 Speaker 2: hair go. But he's lost twenty five pounds. Can we 1342 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 2: see the Travis Kelsey we saw two years ago. Carrie's saying, no. 1343 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 11: Ra he really fell off last years. Yeah, I tell 1344 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:24,200 Speaker 11: you well, carry Look carry played. He knows that when 1345 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,680 Speaker 11: you lose your legs at a skill position, when you 1346 01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 11: got to run, he does. He's not doesn't move as 1347 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 11: well as he used to it. It was a struggle 1348 01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 11: for him. 1349 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:32,439 Speaker 7: Now. I know. 1350 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:34,840 Speaker 11: I was told by someone who knows him pretty well 1351 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 11: that despite all that, he told me this after Super 1352 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 11: Bowl has listened. I know it's going to be out 1353 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 11: there that he might retire. He's not going to retire 1354 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 11: because he's got way too much pride. He's not going 1355 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,600 Speaker 11: to go out like this. But I said to this person, now, 1356 01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 11: hang on a second, but what. 1357 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:50,240 Speaker 7: If you lose it? Why? Like that? Carrie? 1358 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 11: You tell me, as a former player and you've seen 1359 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 11: it from around the league during your time, what happens 1360 01:05:56,080 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 11: when you can't run as well. 1361 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you. When you can't run as well, obviously, 1362 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 4: you start to do things that are out of character, right, 1363 01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 4: Like you'll for him, he's a tight end and he 1364 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 4: does it anyway. 1365 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 3: He's a good body positioner. 1366 01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:11,320 Speaker 4: I you know, you know the perfect example of not 1367 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,439 Speaker 4: having it anymore and still played a couple of years 1368 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,439 Speaker 4: down in the stretch of their career. That was Tony 1369 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 4: Gonzalez when he went to Atlanta. I love Tony, so 1370 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:20,920 Speaker 4: this is not a slide on him at all, but 1371 01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 4: when he went to Atlanta he was. 1372 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:24,480 Speaker 3: Such a shell of himself. 1373 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:26,439 Speaker 4: And when I was covering him, like just having those 1374 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 4: one on one battles that we used to have. 1375 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:29,360 Speaker 7: You know it. Oh so it's a player. 1376 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 3: Wow, you really saw yeah? Like you you literally sit 1377 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:33,840 Speaker 3: on everything. 1378 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 7: Could you describe that like what you saw? Yeah? 1379 01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 4: No, no, I mean there's no shiftinginess in Tony Gonzalez 1380 01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,360 Speaker 4: in his Atlanta years, right, So all he did to 1381 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 4: get open was run to you, push off and position 1382 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 4: you almost like playing basketball, right, And that's what those 1383 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 4: big guys do. And I can see Travis Kelsey still 1384 01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:52,360 Speaker 4: kind of being that he's not going to be a 1385 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 4: guy that's going to be able to go fifteen yards 1386 01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:56,560 Speaker 4: down the field and run a flag and get open 1387 01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 4: right like a little if you need five six yards 1388 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:01,320 Speaker 4: a cal the middle, he can do that just. 1389 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 3: By body positioning. 1390 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,680 Speaker 4: But when you can't run and get separation, you just 1391 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 4: you're no good in that league. 1392 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 7: Wow, that's good. 1393 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:09,240 Speaker 11: So you know zach Ertz is I'll give an examples 1394 01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:11,800 Speaker 11: to zach Ertz with Washington and they love having him 1395 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 11: for his leadership. 1396 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 7: And he's still look, he gets first stands, he gets open. 1397 01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:16,560 Speaker 11: Not that Zach was a Bernie, wasn't the athlete that 1398 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:20,720 Speaker 11: Kelsey was, right, but veteran savvy knowing how to run routes. 1399 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:22,160 Speaker 11: And I know they do a lot of option routes 1400 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 11: with chiefs him and Mahomes. You know that that that 1401 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 11: really good chemistry. But man, the thing about Travis who 1402 01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:29,800 Speaker 11: made him so special he will be a Hall of Famer. 1403 01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 11: By the way, yes, is his ability to run after 1404 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:32,240 Speaker 11: the catch. 1405 01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:32,440 Speaker 7: Bond. 1406 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:34,919 Speaker 11: See as we sent it back to you, that look 1407 01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:38,919 Speaker 11: lost last season. He just didn't have it all right. 1408 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 2: So NFL network at him has a bold prediction okay, 1409 01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:45,520 Speaker 2: that the Broncos are going to dethrone the Chiefs in 1410 01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 2: the ash. 1411 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:46,960 Speaker 7: It's funny. 1412 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 11: This is out, so I'll talk about it. I actually 1413 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,840 Speaker 11: picked on television on Sports grad. I actually picked the 1414 01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 11: Chargers to win the division. Churts so terrible gets the 1415 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 11: Chiefs from number two. But I completely miss on the 1416 01:07:58,680 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 11: Chargers last season. I didn't see with the roster. 1417 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 3: Me neither. 1418 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,479 Speaker 7: But man, look great coaching you carry. 1419 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,960 Speaker 11: You know this great coaching could sometimes overcome Look Washington 1420 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 11: with the coaching they did. The roster wasn't that great. 1421 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 11: That's why they regretsive the offseason. So this is the Manzi. 1422 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 11: The great thing about this league is when we think 1423 01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:19,559 Speaker 11: we know, we don't know Denver by the oddsmakers last 1424 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 11: year was given it four and a half win total. 1425 01:08:21,080 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 7: Okay, four and a half. 1426 01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 11: Trust me, I thought about like I thought it like 1427 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 11: maybe the other might happen. 1428 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 3: Wow, I didn't see it. 1429 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:29,840 Speaker 11: Now, Now, look, do we know that Bonnicks would be 1430 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:31,040 Speaker 11: as good as he was? And I know they had 1431 01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:32,880 Speaker 11: a great schedule that the schedule is easy. Some people 1432 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 11: point out, but they got in the playoffs. You say 1433 01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 11: whatever you want. Now, obviously now teams know about them 1434 01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 11: and they'll play them differently. But coaching matters, folks, man, 1435 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:43,840 Speaker 11: it is super important this business. 1436 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, Denver will not win that the vision. It will 1437 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:49,400 Speaker 4: be Charges. I agree, really really I feel that way 1438 01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:49,720 Speaker 4: as well. 1439 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. 1440 01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:52,320 Speaker 4: I think they've added a few pieces that can really, 1441 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 4: you know, get them over the hump. Defense will be well, 1442 01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:56,719 Speaker 4: I mean, Kansas City is going to be Kansas City, 1443 01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:58,760 Speaker 4: but I think Different is going to take a step back. 1444 01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 11: Actually, well, I'll tell what if the Chargers can get 1445 01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 11: involved with Jayalen Ramsey and get him in there. 1446 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 7: Because they're not very good at corner. That's the one 1447 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 7: problem that I have. 1448 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:09,200 Speaker 11: They got enough past rush, they're very well coached, but 1449 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,000 Speaker 11: they're not very good at corner. That's going to be 1450 01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:14,599 Speaker 11: a problem for them. Are they overachieved at that position? 1451 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,639 Speaker 11: You know, they've restocked their offensive line. 1452 01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 7: I know they're good there. 1453 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 11: They feel like they're good at receiver and they add 1454 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 11: you know they're gonna run it with Harrison now with 1455 01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:23,519 Speaker 11: Mari and. 1456 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:24,200 Speaker 7: Hamp Do, who I love. 1457 01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 11: But the one thing that's going to prevent them from 1458 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,000 Speaker 11: winning a ring is the cornerback position is not very 1459 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 11: good for that football team. 1460 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 2: All right, last one here, and it's it's early to 1461 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:36,479 Speaker 2: ask this, but speaking of dethroning, do you think the 1462 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 2: NFC North is dethroning the A of C North in 1463 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:42,920 Speaker 2: being the toughest division this year? 1464 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,360 Speaker 11: Well, that's the I know what you're getting because you're 1465 01:09:46,360 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 11: assuming the Bears are Ben Johnson are going to make 1466 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 11: a big jump. 1467 01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:49,599 Speaker 7: I get that. 1468 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 11: Well, the problem is the Browns now, Look, we could 1469 01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 11: all be wrong in this one. The odds makers, the 1470 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 11: public thinks they're gonna be terrible because of the quarterback position. 1471 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:00,320 Speaker 11: They're given a four to four and a half way total. 1472 01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:01,760 Speaker 11: Some books have him at three and a half, which 1473 01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:07,360 Speaker 11: is comical. Yep, I would say this. The Bengals, I 1474 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:09,080 Speaker 11: think that they're gonna bounce BA because they're gonna be 1475 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 11: coached better. 1476 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:11,040 Speaker 7: Defensively. I don't know what they were terrible? 1477 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:14,280 Speaker 11: List Yeah, on defense, we got Rodgers there in the 1478 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 11: AFC North, they have to be better, right, Well, I 1479 01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 11: don't know about that. The people are still better in 1480 01:10:18,200 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 11: the under their bad look, they over owned Mike Thomas 1481 01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:24,400 Speaker 11: never had to losing record. The overrunner total is eight 1482 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:27,640 Speaker 11: and a half, which is scratches my head. But I 1483 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 11: would say the NFC North has, yes, has a very 1484 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 11: good chance to be better because I think Ben Johnson 1485 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:33,519 Speaker 11: is going to work out. 1486 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 7: They needed badly needed discipline. They've got it. 1487 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 11: He coaches hard. The Lions, we know they'll get Hutchinson back. 1488 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 11: They had a number of players they had this offseum particular. 1489 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 11: The draft packers are always good. Now here's the before 1490 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 11: we end this. JJ McCarthy's the simple. It's it's still simple. 1491 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 11: If he plays as well as they think he could play, 1492 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:55,240 Speaker 11: they actually could push for the division. That's a little strong, 1493 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:59,480 Speaker 11: but they're really well coached. The decordinator Floors is phenomenal. 1494 01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 11: Top three to Defen's the Bots, the natural FOOTBA League 1495 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,240 Speaker 11: that's actually about it's a good point. Yeah, that's a 1496 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:05,920 Speaker 11: really good division now that I haven't. 1497 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 7: Even looked at that. 1498 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,439 Speaker 3: Come on, really, but it. 1499 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:11,920 Speaker 7: Depends on Caleb Boyts a Ben Johnson.

That is an honorable mention. Okay, sure, 1670 01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:30,519 Speaker 2: all right? Show me magic, Magic, win's it? Three oh three? 1671 01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:36,760 Speaker 2: Show me John Stockton, correct, show me see Nash? But 1672 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 2: is it Luca? Is it? Yokish? 1673 01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:41,040 Speaker 7: Uh? 1674 01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:42,439 Speaker 5: Do? 1675 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:48,599 Speaker 2: Listen to Fox Sports Radio What's up Everybody? Our number 1676 01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 2: three with my buddy Carrie Rhads on this Sunday, Game 1677 01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:56,719 Speaker 2: seven of the NBA Finals, tipping off in about an hour. 1678 01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,840 Speaker 2: At the last hour, we finished up easy as one, two, three, four, 1679 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:04,360 Speaker 2: where I test the crew's knowledge barely. We did get 1680 01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 2: through it. Marin came in clutch as one of your lifelines. 1681 01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 2: But the last question was who has had the most 1682 01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:15,559 Speaker 2: assists in a playoff run like a single playoff run. 1683 01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:20,880 Speaker 2: It was not Eugenio Elhemio is an MLB player, He 1684 01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:24,200 Speaker 2: has no assist that I know of. But Magic Johnson is, 1685 01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,080 Speaker 2: you know, has the four top records. So you guys 1686 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:29,880 Speaker 2: got Magic Johnson. Three oh three is the most ever 1687 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:32,320 Speaker 2: for a playoff run. Three hundred and three assists, and 1688 01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 2: again he's the name top four. But then Rajon Rondo 1689 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:37,360 Speaker 2: comes in. You guys did not get Rajon Rondo. He 1690 01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:40,240 Speaker 2: is two hundred and twenty seven. And then after that, 1691 01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:43,559 Speaker 2: Magic Johnson comes in again. John Stockton comes in. He's 1692 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:45,519 Speaker 2: in the top ten two seventeen, and you guys got 1693 01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:49,679 Speaker 2: John Stockton. Magic Johnson comes in again. Dennis Johnson comes 1694 01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,719 Speaker 2: in with two oh five. You guys got Steve Nash 1695 01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 2: two oh four, Isaiah Thomas to one, Drew Holliday one 1696 01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:01,439 Speaker 2: ninety nine, Lebron James one ninety eight. Russell was ninety 1697 01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 2: eight as well. Tyres Halliburton won ninety seven this playoff 1698 01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:14,599 Speaker 2: run run, so he could catapult himself in a top ten. 1699 01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 2: What does he need he has right now, so one 1700 01:21:18,280 --> 01:21:21,840 Speaker 2: ninety seven, if he got ten, it would take him 1701 01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:26,400 Speaker 2: into the top ten over Dennis Johnson with two oh seven. Yep, 1702 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:29,560 Speaker 2: he would, he would. He can do that today, you guys. 1703 01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:33,240 Speaker 2: He can absolutely do that. It's a perfect segue into 1704 01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:37,120 Speaker 2: Game seven that we're gonna get to all watch in 1705 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:43,920 Speaker 2: about an hour. Very excited. Last week you dismissed. You 1706 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,040 Speaker 2: don't like the word dismissed, but you did. You dismissed 1707 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,840 Speaker 2: the Pacers. You didn't think they could pull it off, 1708 01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:53,880 Speaker 2: going back to okaysee, you thought it's gonna be over. 1709 01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:56,760 Speaker 2: They're gonna okay, see will win this and six. And 1710 01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:58,880 Speaker 2: I was just surprised because you have been so high 1711 01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 2: on the Pacers for so long, and many people were, 1712 01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,559 Speaker 2: including me, I like jumped late on this bandwagon to 1713 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:07,479 Speaker 2: believe that the Pacers could get this far. I did 1714 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:11,600 Speaker 2: not believe scoring by committee was gonna be successful in 1715 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 2: the long term of the playoff run. They've proved me 1716 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 2: wrong because Tyrus Haliburn has been so fun to watch, 1717 01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 2: Pascal Siaga, TJ McConnell, I want his jersey. Can I 1718 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:26,599 Speaker 2: get his jersey, Like, what am I doing? He's been 1719 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:28,559 Speaker 2: so great and listen, okay, see has been super fun 1720 01:22:28,560 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 2: to watch as well. They have been very exciting. But 1721 01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:34,679 Speaker 2: the big surprise year has been the Pacers, right. 1722 01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have to go for it. No. 1723 01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:41,720 Speaker 2: I the game in game five and okac that they won. 1724 01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:43,400 Speaker 2: I didn't watch you it live and I went back 1725 01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:45,040 Speaker 2: to watch it. And what I told you last week 1726 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 2: was even if the Pacers lose, it matters how they lose. 1727 01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 2: And when I finished watching that game, already knowing that 1728 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 2: the Pacers lost, I was like, how did they lose? 1729 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:58,160 Speaker 2: I want to go see this. Pacers did not play well. 1730 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:01,200 Speaker 2: It was sloppy, it was messy, and they made a 1731 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,920 Speaker 2: bit of a comeback and thunderstill won. And then after 1732 01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:07,240 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, Pacers absolutely are going to win 1733 01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: Game six. They walked away from this not feeling down 1734 01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 2: on themselves. That's what I thought, because of how sloppy 1735 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:16,680 Speaker 2: and gross they played to start the game, that they 1736 01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 2: still in the end were in it. Yeah it was 1737 01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:22,479 Speaker 2: a double digit, you know win, but it didn't tell 1738 01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:24,639 Speaker 2: the story. They made a run, Yeah they made a run. 1739 01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:29,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I mean Game seven, Yeah, I mean all 1740 01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 4: the chatter outside of real basketball fans and talking about 1741 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 4: you know, the ratings and all that stuff. Nobody cares. 1742 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:42,519 Speaker 4: No real basketball enthusiasts are really enjoying this series, and 1743 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:45,200 Speaker 4: I know we are. And I know when you get 1744 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 4: into a one game scenario, right, it just really gives 1745 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:51,879 Speaker 4: you that, like you have no margin for era. Everything's 1746 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,880 Speaker 4: going to be tightly contested. I mean, people are going 1747 01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,680 Speaker 4: to be fighting for loose balls. Like it's when you 1748 01:23:57,720 --> 01:23:59,559 Speaker 4: look at that, I mean, you talk about the NBA 1749 01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 4: as a whole, that's a product what we talked about 1750 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:06,040 Speaker 4: this year, like people not playing hard, or people kind 1751 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:08,080 Speaker 4: of taking it for granted and too many threes and 1752 01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:10,240 Speaker 4: all those things. That's not the case in this series 1753 01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 4: at all. It's been fundamental basketball. It's been tough basketball. Obviously, 1754 01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 4: you're at this level competing for a championship, right, so 1755 01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:19,760 Speaker 4: all the all the marbles are on the table and 1756 01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 4: nothing's really being no stones being left unturned. And you 1757 01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 4: can tell by Washington, like the coaches are going to 1758 01:24:27,120 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 4: every possible matchup, every possible scenario, every possible thing they 1759 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:33,639 Speaker 4: can to help their team win. We're saying it all. 1760 01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I know I've talked about it. We've talked 1761 01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:38,400 Speaker 4: about it. Rick Carlisle has been the ace, you know, 1762 01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 4: the ace and the hole in this series. But I 1763 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,160 Speaker 4: want to also give Mark dayton As some credit. Yeah, 1764 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,559 Speaker 4: he's been able to you know, he made he made 1765 01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 4: an adjustment that we didn't like in Game one where 1766 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:50,559 Speaker 4: he took out Hartenstein and put in Casey Wallace. He 1767 01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:53,280 Speaker 4: made the shift back to Hartenstein back in the in 1768 01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:55,760 Speaker 4: the in the starting lineup in Game four turned the 1769 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 4: series back. They won those two games. They won those games, 1770 01:24:59,360 --> 01:25:01,760 Speaker 4: got back in the series, and now we're gonna see 1771 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,639 Speaker 4: who's gonna make the best decision in Game seven. Because 1772 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 4: game seven, anything can happen. I think the coach that's 1773 01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:09,200 Speaker 4: going to be more flexible in what they do in 1774 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 4: this approach will be the team that wins the series. 1775 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:14,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't give me statistics for a Game seven. I 1776 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:17,439 Speaker 2: don't care, Martin. I don't care if the Thunder haven't 1777 01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:18,599 Speaker 2: lost two games in a row. 1778 01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:22,920 Speaker 9: Right, Well, do you care that the Thunder have their 1779 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 9: buses painted well under them? 1780 01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 2: Martin?

So thanks Martin, there is video 1805 01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:49,000 Speaker 2: of buses for the thunder where it already has painted. 1806 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 2: They already painted on them champions like this is like 1807 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:55,040 Speaker 2: for the parade. This is what it looks like. These 1808 01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:58,480 Speaker 2: it looks like double decker buses ready for the parade, 1809 01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:03,599 Speaker 2: and it says, okay, see champions on it twenty twenty five. 1810 01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:11,479 Speaker 2: You know what that means, Moscy that Ricky, I don't. 1811 01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if this is really already set up? 1812 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:20,920 Speaker 2: How did you let anyone take video of this? Idiots? Idious? 1813 01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 4: It's not set up, guys, listen in this in this scenario, 1814 01:27:25,560 --> 01:27:26,840 Speaker 4: it's a one game situation. 1815 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 2: There's t shirts and hats printed up for both sides. 1816 01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 2: That's different, though, that is because you're selling that the 1817 01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 2: minute you can. You're not gonna sell this bus. You 1818 01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:37,639 Speaker 2: could have painted this bus tomorrow. 1819 01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 4: I bet you that's a bus in Indiana that has 1820 01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:41,960 Speaker 4: the same thing. It just hasn't been captured. Just so 1821 01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:44,880 Speaker 4: you guys understand, this is something that's not this is 1822 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:46,320 Speaker 4: this is not a conspiracy. 1823 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:52,559 Speaker 2: This it doesn't it's any if they win. 1824 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 3: Do I need do I need to be the adult 1825 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:57,000 Speaker 3: in the room again? 1826 01:27:57,080 --> 01:27:57,280 Speaker 7: Here? 1827 01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:58,640 Speaker 2: No, you're not the adult in. 1828 01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 4: The adult in the room. There is no conspiracy. The 1829 01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:05,759 Speaker 4: hats to your conspiracy the trophy. 1830 01:28:05,920 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 3: How can the engraving of the chop. 1831 01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 2: He's he's on the payro ten minutes after the interesting 1832 01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:21,320 Speaker 2: plans twice if you need it saving, Yes, you guys 1833 01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:25,559 Speaker 2: can see it. But there's a conspiracy. You don't do 1834 01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 2: this and you don't let someone tape it. That that's 1835 01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:32,800 Speaker 2: the conspiracy. How did they get leaked because you let 1836 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,360 Speaker 2: someone tape it. I don't understand. This is bad. This 1837 01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 2: is bad. So Rick Carlisle in his pressor pregame presser 1838 01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:43,400 Speaker 2: Rachel Nichol, Nichols has that he saw this video already 1839 01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:47,760 Speaker 2: that's gone viral and that's what he's thinking about right now. 1840 01:28:48,040 --> 01:28:50,040 Speaker 3: That's crazy, y'all. 1841 01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:56,719 Speaker 2: Motivation, talk about motivation, because you know what, I don't 1842 01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:59,559 Speaker 2: think the Pacers have a bus like this already. I don't. 1843 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:03,439 Speaker 2: I think there are shirts because because they're going to 1844 01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:05,160 Speaker 2: sell that, because after the game they're going to put 1845 01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:07,639 Speaker 2: that on. Yes, they're not having a parade today at 1846 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 2: ten pm. They're doing a parade in a day or two. 1847 01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 2: So I don't I don't believe that the Pacers already 1848 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 2: have painted their bus, and the fact that they have 1849 01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:20,360 Speaker 2: painted their bus. I can't you, guys, you're going to 1850 01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,680 Speaker 2: a Game seven in the NBA Finals. You went to 1851 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:26,960 Speaker 2: a Game seven against the Denver Nuggets. You are not you. 1852 01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 2: You have not been in cruise control. No to do this, 1853 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 2: it seems oh hasty, it's a little hasty. Have a cocktail. 1854 01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:37,559 Speaker 2: What if I told you me? No, Well, I've told 1855 01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:39,680 Speaker 2: you I have a cocktail. Have a cocktail. When you're 1856 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:41,599 Speaker 2: gonna make a decision like this, think about. 1857 01:29:41,400 --> 01:29:41,760 Speaker 3: It, you guys. 1858 01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:44,160 Speaker 2: Should we paint this right now? Maybe we should wait 1859 01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:44,800 Speaker 2: till the game's over. 1860 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 4: Well, you know what, maybe maybe that that that coat 1861 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:52,320 Speaker 4: of paint what's about to be dry or go extinct? 1862 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:55,479 Speaker 4: That that actual color. This is not like a normal 1863 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:57,759 Speaker 4: color either. It's a color you have to go get, 1864 01:29:58,080 --> 01:29:59,200 Speaker 4: and I'm sure color. 1865 01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:01,160 Speaker 2: You have to go get. It's white. I'm looking at it. 1866 01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:02,120 Speaker 3: I thought it was blue. 1867 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:03,840 Speaker 2: I mean the buses. No, I think this bus was 1868 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 2: already probably theirs. 1869 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 3: No, that's what I was thinking. 1870 01:30:06,439 --> 01:30:09,400 Speaker 2: That's and then they're putting a champion. I gotta see 1871 01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:11,240 Speaker 2: it again, you gotta see I think these are just 1872 01:30:11,400 --> 01:30:15,599 Speaker 2: their buses. And then they have made the champion on 1873 01:30:15,640 --> 01:30:18,680 Speaker 2: the side. The twenty twenty five. Let me make this 1874 01:30:18,720 --> 01:30:20,519 Speaker 2: bigger for you. I'm making you watch this in the 1875 01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:24,920 Speaker 2: size of a tiny, tiny little squear just quickly. 1876 01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:27,759 Speaker 9: Why would they have double decker bushes but no tops 1877 01:30:27,800 --> 01:30:30,919 Speaker 9: just sitting around? I think that they probably recently purchased 1878 01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:36,440 Speaker 9: these buses. Shut up, I'm shutting Hollywood celebrity tow. 1879 01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,680 Speaker 2: It does look like that. It does look like you. 1880 01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:42,360 Speaker 9: Think they just they just taking top down tours of Okay, 1881 01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 9: see all the time. 1882 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,880 Speaker 2: I don't think so, maybe, I mean, why not? Okay, fine, fine, 1883 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 2: you're right, true, I don't know what they do. Yes, now, 1884 01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:51,840 Speaker 2: now we're right. You're right. 1885 01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 3: Made a whole little real argument. 1886 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:02,000 Speaker 2: Regardless, Guys, this to me is not comparable to like 1887 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 2: shirts and hats already being made. I don't think this 1888 01:31:04,920 --> 01:31:08,200 Speaker 2: is the same. I can't. And maybe maybe this is 1889 01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,320 Speaker 2: something that is done. And what's the first time we're 1890 01:31:10,360 --> 01:31:13,080 Speaker 2: watching this? Right? But how did you let somebody tape this? 1891 01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:16,000 Speaker 2: How did you let it go on social media? You guys, 1892 01:31:16,040 --> 01:31:18,599 Speaker 2: come on, this is bad. And now if you lose, 1893 01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:21,439 Speaker 2: no one's gonna let you live this down. No, nobody's 1894 01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:23,800 Speaker 2: gonna let you live this down. Nobody was gonna let 1895 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 2: you live it down because you were expected to win 1896 01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:29,439 Speaker 2: in five games in a sweep, a gentleman's sweep, like 1897 01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:33,200 Speaker 2: everybody was into anticipating an easy route for you to 1898 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:36,320 Speaker 2: get to the finals, especially when you handle the Grizzlies 1899 01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:39,639 Speaker 2: so easily. You have not been on cruise control. This 1900 01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:42,040 Speaker 2: is bad. I don't know what's gonna happen, but I 1901 01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:44,840 Speaker 2: will tell you. I think the marketing for the playoffs, 1902 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 2: or specifically the NBA Finals carry has been so bad, 1903 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:52,880 Speaker 2: like the NBA has dropped the ball, and I understand 1904 01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:57,080 Speaker 2: that people maybe are not watching because ESPN sucks. I'm sorry, 1905 01:31:57,080 --> 01:31:59,600 Speaker 2: it does. It does, It really does. And stephen A 1906 01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:02,720 Speaker 2: you like I don't, you're watching solitaire. I don't want 1907 01:32:02,720 --> 01:32:05,559 Speaker 2: to listen to what you have to say because it 1908 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,880 Speaker 2: means nothing. You're not even watching the game, so I 1909 01:32:08,920 --> 01:32:12,160 Speaker 2: can't take what you say seriously. Aside from looking at 1910 01:32:12,160 --> 01:32:14,760 Speaker 2: how cute Malika Andrews looks in her outfits, like what 1911 01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:18,400 Speaker 2: am I watching ESPN for? Honestly, I think that's part 1912 01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:21,719 Speaker 2: of the problem with the marketing and why people aren't watching. 1913 01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:24,240 Speaker 2: It's not just two small markets. It's people don't like 1914 01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:26,400 Speaker 2: ESPN and people don't like Steven a and people don't 1915 01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 2: like Kendrick Perkins and people don't like whatever, And so 1916 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:33,599 Speaker 2: why did the NBA do Carrie a minute? We had 1917 01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:36,120 Speaker 2: the NBA Finals set up? How did I not get 1918 01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:40,880 Speaker 2: a commercial that was like foul merchant versus overrated? Who wins? 1919 01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:42,879 Speaker 2: How did I get? How did I not get that commercial? 1920 01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:46,439 Speaker 4: It's been bad and I think that's why. Obviously NBC 1921 01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:50,679 Speaker 4: is back right after this. Yes, it will be, it'll 1922 01:32:50,680 --> 01:32:52,720 Speaker 4: be a different group of people. And obviously take us 1923 01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:55,800 Speaker 4: back to our heyday when the NBA Finals. 1924 01:32:55,520 --> 01:32:57,200 Speaker 2: Was was crazy. Huh. 1925 01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:01,519 Speaker 4: It was everything the marketing, the advertised and I guess 1926 01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:06,320 Speaker 4: we also got winners that we could root for Heavy 1927 01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:09,760 Speaker 4: sure and root against Heavy right Like I think that 1928 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 4: part of it was the thing as well. This final 1929 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:16,439 Speaker 4: has been more of a coming out party for both teams, 1930 01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 4: even though okay, see what's the best team all year? 1931 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:20,519 Speaker 4: I mean like in this situation, like a chance to 1932 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,479 Speaker 4: win it. It's it's a different thing. There's no like 1933 01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:26,280 Speaker 4: nostal joy history with the way ESBN. 1934 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:28,479 Speaker 2: Does things, there is And I know people were upset, 1935 01:33:28,520 --> 01:33:32,280 Speaker 2: and I agree. Where were the floor dcals telling me 1936 01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 2: that it's the NBA Finals and they said it was slippery. 1937 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:37,000 Speaker 2: This is not okay, stop it. You could have found 1938 01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 2: something that's not slippery. Don't lie to me. You ain't 1939 01:33:39,120 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 2: gotta light a kick it. You could have done this, 1940 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:43,400 Speaker 2: but you dropped the ball. There's been no advertise. Give 1941 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,200 Speaker 2: me a billboard. I understand. I'm in La. Give me 1942 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:49,800 Speaker 2: a billboard. Because people love to hate. Watch exactly what 1943 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:52,440 Speaker 2: do we do when you have missed opportunity? 1944 01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:53,960 Speaker 3: You get to use both of all sens. 1945 01:33:54,040 --> 01:33:56,840 Speaker 2: You get to use. Because we saw Shay Gildas Alexander 1946 01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,479 Speaker 2: be hated not by everybody, but be hated because you know, 1947 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:03,760 Speaker 2: goes for the foul. Then the story about mister overrated 1948 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 2: with Tyrese Haliburton, like it was all there. And then 1949 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 2: Tyrese Haliburton had game winners already leading up to the finals, 1950 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:13,960 Speaker 2: like there were opportunities for you to market and make 1951 01:34:14,040 --> 01:34:17,880 Speaker 2: it be a topic of conversation, like we talked about 1952 01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:20,760 Speaker 2: this with Adam Kaplan. Super Bowl comes around the week 1953 01:34:20,800 --> 01:34:23,640 Speaker 2: of the Super Bowl. I can't stop seeing Super Bowl advertisements. 1954 01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:26,080 Speaker 2: And even if you don't care who's in the super Bowl, 1955 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:28,760 Speaker 2: at least they're telling me as the Super Bowl. I 1956 01:34:28,760 --> 01:34:32,360 Speaker 2: don't care about UFC fighters or boxing. I know every 1957 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:35,040 Speaker 2: single time there's a fight because I see an advertisement 1958 01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:38,240 Speaker 2: for it. Where is the advertisement in the marketing? 1959 01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:40,960 Speaker 4: It makes no sense. I mean, these are the most 1960 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 4: visible athletes in the world. I mean, obviously soccer is 1961 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:47,000 Speaker 4: a big thing now, but I mean in America for sure, 1962 01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:50,840 Speaker 4: Like you can see them like they're good looking guys, 1963 01:34:50,920 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 4: and you can market them in a way touly like 1964 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:57,559 Speaker 4: it's it's no reason that it should be a lack 1965 01:34:57,560 --> 01:35:00,240 Speaker 4: of advertisement when it comes to the NBA Finals, Like, 1966 01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,720 Speaker 4: nobody's getting together. We're not even going to watch this 1967 01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:04,800 Speaker 4: after We're just going hard to watching the game. 1968 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:11,599 Speaker 2: That Carrie Corona is one of the least tasty beers 1969 01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:13,960 Speaker 2: in the world.

Why because they market it because they tell 1972 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:23,719 Speaker 2: me I want it. And it's silly, but that matters, 1973 01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:26,960 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Patron not good tequila. At 1974 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,759 Speaker 2: least it tastes like tequila. You know, I like my tequila. 1975 01:35:29,800 --> 01:35:31,040 Speaker 2: It tastes like tequila, which is why I don't like 1976 01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:34,520 Speaker 2: cosam Egos because it doesn't taste like tequila. But Patrona 1977 01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:37,800 Speaker 2: is marketed so well where when I go somewhere and 1978 01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:40,200 Speaker 2: I ask for a specific tequila and they don't have it, 1979 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:42,439 Speaker 2: they'll be like, but we have patron And then my 1980 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:44,280 Speaker 2: my dumb person I was can I say I was 1981 01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:47,960 Speaker 2: gonna say about r my idiotself, Yeah, I'll take patron 1982 01:35:48,280 --> 01:35:51,960 Speaker 2: Why because you've advertised it to the point where it's like, okay, sure, 1983 01:35:52,800 --> 01:35:54,080 Speaker 2: I don't get it. 1984 01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:55,439 Speaker 3: I don't know either. 1985 01:35:55,520 --> 01:35:57,880 Speaker 4: And again, like you said, I mean Adam Silva has 1986 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:01,679 Speaker 4: no really he's done a good job with the NBA 1987 01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:03,760 Speaker 4: and trying to get it back on track, but they 1988 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 4: dropped the ball here. I mean the fact that, again, 1989 01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:08,960 Speaker 4: if you're not a basketball purist or an enthusiast, you're 1990 01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 4: not watching it because there's nothing bringing you in.

Johill Tony is going to 2107 01:41:46,439 --> 01:41:49,280 Speaker 2: be the National League MVP for the next couple of years. 2108 01:41:49,400 --> 01:41:52,360 Speaker 2: I just was like, it is their award to, you know, 2109 01:41:52,479 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 2: be taken away from and already in the American League. 2110 01:41:56,840 --> 01:42:02,599 Speaker 2: Cal Rawly, who plays for the Seattle Mariners, a switch 2111 01:42:02,760 --> 01:42:05,640 Speaker 2: hitter today, he won't stop hitting home runs. Today he 2112 01:42:05,680 --> 01:42:09,479 Speaker 2: hit another one. He's at thirty one, thirty one, the 2113 01:42:09,560 --> 01:42:12,920 Speaker 2: first switch hitter to hit thirty home runs before the 2114 01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:17,000 Speaker 2: All Star Break a couple of weeks away, fastest player 2115 01:42:17,080 --> 01:42:20,519 Speaker 2: to thirty home runs in only seventy five games since 2116 01:42:20,760 --> 01:42:24,559 Speaker 2: Barry Bonds and Louis Gonzalez in two thousand and one. 2117 01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 2: He and Ken Griffy Junior are the only two Mariners 2118 01:42:27,560 --> 01:42:30,680 Speaker 2: players ever to hit thirty home runs before the All 2119 01:42:31,040 --> 01:42:33,960 Speaker 2: Star Break. Also, how about this, It is his third 2120 01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:37,960 Speaker 2: consecutive season with thirty home runs, except last year he 2121 01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:41,280 Speaker 2: only did thirty four for the whole year. So now 2122 01:42:41,320 --> 01:42:45,240 Speaker 2: he's at thirty one. Sho Hao Tani is not having 2123 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:49,200 Speaker 2: the spectacular season that he maybe did last year. To start, 2124 01:42:49,479 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 2: you can maybe say the same thing for Aaron Judge, right, 2125 01:42:52,439 --> 01:42:54,599 Speaker 2: But on the national league side, I really don't think 2126 01:42:54,800 --> 01:42:58,080 Speaker 2: right now anyone is challenging Sho Hao Toni. And it 2127 01:42:58,160 --> 01:43:00,599 Speaker 2: adds to the fact that obviously Shoeo Tani is now pitching, right, 2128 01:43:00,760 --> 01:43:03,600 Speaker 2: so we're talking so much about it. Cal Ray is 2129 01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:09,040 Speaker 2: challenging already. Aaron Judge, Ah, how do you feel about that? 2130 01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, pump your breaks. Pump your breaks, my friend. 2131 01:43:12,520 --> 01:43:15,320 Speaker 4: I mean, yes, this is impressive. Don't get me wrong. 2132 01:43:15,760 --> 01:43:19,720 Speaker 4: Thirty one home runs is ridiculous at this point. But 2133 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:22,920 Speaker 4: we got a whole we got another half of a 2134 01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:25,960 Speaker 4: season left to go. And when you look at these 2135 01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:29,759 Speaker 4: two teams, the Mariners, they're playing five hundred baseball. 2136 01:43:29,800 --> 01:43:32,320 Speaker 3: They're right, they're in the mix, they're they're they're there. 2137 01:43:33,080 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 3: But the Yankees are. 2138 01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:36,120 Speaker 4: Going to be in high pressure situations, high pressure games, 2139 01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:39,280 Speaker 4: games that are gonna matter down the stretch where if 2140 01:43:39,320 --> 01:43:42,200 Speaker 4: Aaron comes through and plays that the Rady's playing that 2141 01:43:42,320 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 4: right now. But he's got twenty eight home runs is 2142 01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:47,160 Speaker 4: not far off. I think it's right there. He's going 2143 01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:50,120 Speaker 4: to win the MVP because of that situation. In my 2144 01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:53,839 Speaker 4: mind right not to. I'm not balking that cal Raley's 2145 01:43:53,920 --> 01:43:56,479 Speaker 4: what he's doing. This is amazing, but he's not going 2146 01:43:56,520 --> 01:44:00,920 Speaker 4: to overthrow Aaron Judge unless the Mariners win more. And 2147 01:44:01,040 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 4: that's the I think that's the point. 2148 01:44:02,400 --> 01:44:04,280 Speaker 2: So you think it's gonna come down to because not 2149 01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:06,320 Speaker 2: only does he have the most home runs and yes 2150 01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:08,760 Speaker 2: we're approaching, we're approaching the halfway points a lot, he 2151 01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:13,639 Speaker 2: also has the second most run runs bad at in Yeah, 2152 01:44:13,920 --> 01:44:17,240 Speaker 2: he's got sixty six swat is that like if if 2153 01:44:17,280 --> 01:44:20,680 Speaker 2: you you asked me who's challenging, maybe show Hetani in 2154 01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:24,880 Speaker 2: the American League, probably Ohanniel swatt Is. But it's because 2155 01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,240 Speaker 2: he's obviously like the pitching thing for Otani, it just 2156 01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:29,839 Speaker 2: adds to it, right, right, So it's like the challenges 2157 01:44:29,880 --> 01:44:32,640 Speaker 2: it's gonna be difficult with With Aaron Judge, you have 2158 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:36,120 Speaker 2: a guy who's playing a field position and hitting the 2159 01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:38,680 Speaker 2: ball and hitting the ball for a team that like 2160 01:44:39,680 --> 01:44:42,200 Speaker 2: is up and down. Yankees can be up and down. 2161 01:44:42,240 --> 01:44:45,200 Speaker 2: They can be a bet. So you think at the end, 2162 01:44:45,360 --> 01:44:47,160 Speaker 2: let's say we're talking about this in a few months 2163 01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:52,240 Speaker 2: and Cal Ray and Aaron Judges numbers are interchangeable, Like 2164 01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:57,200 Speaker 2: they're off by one run, one home run, but the 2165 01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:04,679 Speaker 2: Yankees have the better wreck by a couple of games. Okay, 2166 01:45:04,760 --> 01:45:08,040 Speaker 2: you're saying it's like close, and it's close. Did you 2167 01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:10,120 Speaker 2: give it to Do you give it to Aaron Judge 2168 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:11,080 Speaker 2: because he's a Yankee? 2169 01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:13,559 Speaker 4: No, No, you're gonna give the Aaron Judge because he's 2170 01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:15,639 Speaker 4: also a Golden Glove outfielder as well. 2171 01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:17,720 Speaker 3: So don't, don't, don't forget that part of it. 2172 01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:21,800 Speaker 4: Great defensive player makes great catches in the outfield except 2173 01:45:21,840 --> 01:45:23,000 Speaker 4: for the World Series and. 2174 01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:25,519 Speaker 2: Let me. 2175 01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,360 Speaker 3: And he's throwing people out from. 2176 01:45:30,360 --> 01:45:33,160 Speaker 4: Center field at the like he's gonna make other big 2177 01:45:33,240 --> 01:45:37,240 Speaker 4: plays outside of his his ops and it's I mean, 2178 01:45:37,400 --> 01:45:38,960 Speaker 4: you know, it's everything about Aaron. 2179 01:45:39,040 --> 01:45:40,160 Speaker 3: Judge is a juggernaut. 2180 01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:42,400 Speaker 4: So at the end of the day, for cale Raley 2181 01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:43,960 Speaker 4: to win that, I mean, these numbers are going to 2182 01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:46,920 Speaker 4: have to continue, but he's going to have to possibly 2183 01:45:46,960 --> 01:45:48,640 Speaker 4: win the Gold Glove that catcher as well. And so 2184 01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:50,280 Speaker 4: we don't I don't know how good he is that 2185 01:45:50,560 --> 01:45:53,360 Speaker 4: at at the defensive part of the game. It's not 2186 01:45:53,600 --> 01:45:57,559 Speaker 4: just about offensive numbers, people, it's the whole, the whole, 2187 01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:59,800 Speaker 4: the whole shebang. So I want to see what Kyl 2188 01:45:59,880 --> 01:46:01,599 Speaker 4: does outside of the home runs. 2189 01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:05,280 Speaker 2: I mean, it's true because Judge, his batting average has 2190 01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:08,600 Speaker 2: been amazing still and it's dipped and he's still one 2191 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:12,000 Speaker 2: of the best ones. It's dipped. Yet he's three sixty 2192 01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:14,160 Speaker 2: seven or something like. It's something ridiculous. 2193 01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:14,360 Speaker 6: Right. 2194 01:46:14,640 --> 01:46:18,080 Speaker 2: Also on base percentage, slugging percentage, I hate ops and 2195 01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:21,080 Speaker 2: war I hate those numbers. But he he is, you know, 2196 01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:25,479 Speaker 2: leading still in that is just impressive what cal Rawley 2197 01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:29,760 Speaker 2: is doing. He's bringing attention to the Mariners. And when 2198 01:46:29,880 --> 01:46:33,040 Speaker 2: your name is being put up there with Barry Bonds 2199 01:46:33,080 --> 01:46:34,920 Speaker 2: and like Ken Griffy Junior, all of a sudden, people 2200 01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:38,519 Speaker 2: start talking and MVP sometimes it is a bit of 2201 01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:43,800 Speaker 2: a popularity contest, right And so like him already being 2202 01:46:43,920 --> 01:46:47,559 Speaker 2: discussed now is why I say he's already challenging, because 2203 01:46:47,600 --> 01:46:49,840 Speaker 2: there is nobody in the National League that is being 2204 01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:50,600 Speaker 2: talked about like this. 2205 01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:53,160 Speaker 4: Well I loved them to keep doing it. So Aaron 2206 01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:55,439 Speaker 4: Judge gets the memo uh huh and just goes on 2207 01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:57,720 Speaker 4: one of his storyts. So keep doing it, MOUSSEI just 2208 01:46:57,760 --> 01:46:59,679 Speaker 4: say it really loud, say cal Rally is going to win. 2209 01:46:59,560 --> 01:47:02,080 Speaker 2: The MVP right now, right now, And so Aaron cal 2210 01:47:02,160 --> 01:47:06,760 Speaker 2: Rawle's maybe gonna win because I maybe maybe, I don't know. 2211 01:47:06,880 --> 01:47:09,599 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, Aaron Judge, you hear this, Aaron Judge, Aaron. 2212 01:47:09,680 --> 01:47:12,920 Speaker 2: I love Aaron Judge. I'm going, you know, all rise, 2213 01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:14,920 Speaker 2: all rise all the time. I haven't here I have 2214 01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:17,920 Speaker 2: an Aaron Judger. I love him. I love him, all rise, 2215 01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:23,160 Speaker 2: all rise. I'm looking forward to what happens just because 2216 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:25,920 Speaker 2: I like what you said, the challenge. There are players 2217 01:47:25,960 --> 01:47:28,720 Speaker 2: who live up to a challenge, and I hope Aaron 2218 01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:31,080 Speaker 2: Judge does and he's paying attention, like, oh this guy 2219 01:47:31,240 --> 01:47:35,040 Speaker 2: is he does want to come for this absolutely, And 2220 01:47:35,439 --> 01:47:36,839 Speaker 2: I'm not against the challenge. 2221 01:47:37,439 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 3: You just you just look at you. 2222 01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:42,559 Speaker 4: It's like you're outside run running back people houses, throwing eggs. 2223 01:47:42,600 --> 01:47:43,639 Speaker 4: You're trying to irritate people. 2224 01:47:43,640 --> 01:47:45,560 Speaker 2: You're trying to trying to irritate you. You're trying to 2225 01:47:45,600 --> 01:47:46,200 Speaker 2: make people. 2226 01:47:46,040 --> 01:47:48,280 Speaker 4: Come outside to salute you and see you and kind 2227 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:50,240 Speaker 4: of find you. That's what Aaron Judge is going to do. 2228 01:47:50,280 --> 01:47:52,200 Speaker 4: And he's going to come out, He's going to salute you, 2229 01:47:52,680 --> 01:47:54,080 Speaker 4: and he's going to go on one of those runs 2230 01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:55,680 Speaker 4: where he hits a home run every game. 2231 01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:57,280 Speaker 2: You know how it goes, You know how it goes. 2232 01:47:57,479 --> 01:48:01,600 Speaker 2: You're right, how are you on like envy? Like what 2233 01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:04,000 Speaker 2: what if? It's like, oh, Aaron Judge is great, but 2234 01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:06,720 Speaker 2: John Carlos stant is also great, like later in the season, right, 2235 01:48:07,160 --> 01:48:10,519 Speaker 2: and then it's Cal Rawly is like actually like more 2236 01:48:10,760 --> 01:48:16,280 Speaker 2: valuable to the Mariners. It's in his eyes, he's not 2237 01:48:16,439 --> 01:48:23,240 Speaker 2: liking this. Stop yet. We're not there yet, but fine, 2238 01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:24,560 Speaker 2: stop it. 2239 01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:25,519 Speaker 7: You know, what. 2240 01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:27,840 Speaker 2: Let's get into it. Let's do a little do it 2241 01:48:28,640 --> 01:48:29,160 Speaker 2: all right? 2242 01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:29,680 Speaker 7: Why not? 2243 01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:32,960 Speaker 2: Let's get into it with carry on or off.

Carrie, are you on or off? Quick trips 2247 01:48:44,240 --> 01:48:46,760 Speaker 2: to Vegas? Let's start there. 2248 01:48:47,120 --> 01:48:50,479 Speaker 3: I am so off that. Listen. 2249 01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:55,280 Speaker 4: I am the resident old guy in the building, grandpa, 2250 01:48:55,640 --> 01:48:59,040 Speaker 4: and anything that gets me off the couch in a 2251 01:48:59,160 --> 01:49:02,120 Speaker 4: quick instant, it would be something I'm against. Yeah, And 2252 01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:06,160 Speaker 4: so going to Vegas on the seven hour journey there 2253 01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:09,360 Speaker 4: and back to go to a pool party kind of 2254 01:49:09,400 --> 01:49:10,000 Speaker 4: makes my head Hut. 2255 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:11,840 Speaker 2: I didn't see how Shae was looking like, so, yeah, 2256 01:49:11,960 --> 01:49:13,120 Speaker 2: and you saw. 2257 01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:15,080 Speaker 3: The youngest guy well besides Mary. 2258 01:49:15,000 --> 01:49:18,000 Speaker 2: Shae, Shae's yeah, one of the young you know, dead 2259 01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:18,519 Speaker 2: to the world. 2260 01:49:18,600 --> 01:49:21,040 Speaker 3: I don't want that. I need stuff. I need energy 2261 01:49:21,080 --> 01:49:22,000 Speaker 3: to get about my day. 2262 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:26,200 Speaker 2: So I'm off that. So back during your twenties, would 2263 01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:26,760 Speaker 2: you have done it? 2264 01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:30,160 Speaker 4: I only went to I probably went to Vegas to 2265 01:49:30,680 --> 01:49:34,160 Speaker 4: two times I can count to this point in my Wow. 2266 01:49:34,400 --> 01:49:36,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not I'm not like a wild No, no, no, 2267 01:49:38,120 --> 01:49:40,320 Speaker 2: you would have died with Shaye on Night one, you 2268 01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:43,519 Speaker 2: would have died absolutely. Shane was there longer than I was. 2269 01:49:43,600 --> 01:49:46,960 Speaker 2: I was there for about seven hours. So all right, Carrie, 2270 01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:49,360 Speaker 2: are you on or off the idea that NBA players 2271 01:49:49,400 --> 01:49:52,080 Speaker 2: in today's game have a chance to be better than 2272 01:49:52,160 --> 01:49:55,960 Speaker 2: players in the past because of their ability to shoot 2273 01:49:56,360 --> 01:49:57,480 Speaker 2: the balloo? 2274 01:49:58,160 --> 01:49:59,519 Speaker 3: You know, I'm a basketball period. 2275 01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:03,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna say I'm off that you're 2276 01:50:03,600 --> 01:50:08,479 Speaker 4: off that. I think the demand on shooting is a 2277 01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:12,240 Speaker 4: little bit more prominent now. The demand doesn't mean that 2278 01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:14,160 Speaker 4: they couldn't shoot out. I mean there's so many shooters 2279 01:50:14,200 --> 01:50:16,760 Speaker 4: from the past that you wouldn't even think about right now. 2280 01:50:16,880 --> 01:50:19,479 Speaker 4: But you know about him, Chris Mullen and yeah, I 2281 01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:22,600 Speaker 4: mean de Ray Allen's and the Larry Birds, and I 2282 01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:24,840 Speaker 4: mean just so many shooters at that time. If they 2283 01:50:24,920 --> 01:50:28,960 Speaker 4: were asked to do what the game is asking the 2284 01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:31,200 Speaker 4: players to do now, they can shoot just as well. 2285 01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:35,120 Speaker 2: Interesting. So this comes on the heels of Scotty Pippens 2286 01:50:35,240 --> 01:50:38,599 Speaker 2: comments with ESPN where he talked that he thinks Jalen 2287 01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:40,840 Speaker 2: Williams could be a better two than him, and that's 2288 01:50:40,880 --> 01:50:43,479 Speaker 2: what people fixiated on that one liner that he said, 2289 01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:46,439 Speaker 2: but what he was actually saying, it's because of the 2290 01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:49,800 Speaker 2: ability to shoot. That was his entire point in saying that. 2291 01:50:50,120 --> 01:50:52,559 Speaker 2: But I like how you broke it down. 2292 01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:54,559 Speaker 4: And I think the thing about Scotty is he wasn't 2293 01:50:54,560 --> 01:50:57,599 Speaker 4: a pure shooter, right, He did everything really really well, 2294 01:50:57,720 --> 01:50:59,360 Speaker 4: but he wasn't a great shooter. And I think and 2295 01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:00,800 Speaker 4: that can be Errison, that makes sense. 2296 01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:03,719 Speaker 2: And and also he got better like Scotty Pippin got better. 2297 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:08,680 Speaker 2: And so yeah, absolutely absolutely, Carrie. Are you on or 2298 01:51:09,040 --> 01:51:14,160 Speaker 2: off the NFL networks bold prediction that Daniel Jones will 2299 01:51:14,240 --> 01:51:15,720 Speaker 2: win Comeback Player of the Year. 2300 01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:20,000 Speaker 4: Man, I'm so off that Press that button quick, Mary, 2301 01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:25,719 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones.

I do think that 2307 01:51:41,640 --> 01:51:44,760 Speaker 4: he may play some play some this year and he's 2308 01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:46,080 Speaker 4: in Tennessee or is it? 2309 01:51:48,960 --> 01:51:51,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you got it, you just so he may 2310 01:51:51,600 --> 01:51:51,760 Speaker 2: have a. 2311 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:54,400 Speaker 4: Chance to play with Anthony Richardson.

A big sale, Genie Boss. The Bus family 2373 01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:13,160 Speaker 2: decided to sell the Lakers for ten billion dollars billion 2374 01:55:13,400 --> 01:55:18,760 Speaker 2: dollars exact. And that sounds like a number that I'm 2375 01:55:18,840 --> 01:55:21,000 Speaker 2: gonna throw up, right, Like, I can't understand that, right. 2376 01:55:21,880 --> 01:55:25,280 Speaker 2: But what I can't understand even more besides the astronomical 2377 01:55:25,320 --> 01:55:29,720 Speaker 2: amount that is ten billion dollars, is the decision to 2378 01:55:30,040 --> 01:55:35,600 Speaker 2: sell the Lakers. There's just some things where like I 2379 01:55:35,680 --> 01:55:38,800 Speaker 2: don't think money can buy right, And I'm not trying 2380 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:44,840 Speaker 2: to talk smack, but like you didn't sell the Portland Trailblazers. 2381 01:55:46,240 --> 01:55:50,520 Speaker 2: You didn't sell the Washington Nationals. You didn't. You sold 2382 01:55:51,560 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 2: the loss Angelus Lakers. I hate the Lakers and I 2383 01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:01,440 Speaker 2: would have never sold them. Wow, for ten ten bees, 2384 01:56:01,480 --> 01:56:02,520 Speaker 2: you wand have sold the Lakers. 2385 01:56:02,600 --> 01:56:02,880 Speaker 11: I don't. 2386 01:56:02,960 --> 01:56:06,000 Speaker 2: It's it's beyond that. It's beyond it's you have let 2387 01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:11,080 Speaker 2: go of a few. There are very few sports franchises 2388 01:56:11,400 --> 01:56:15,960 Speaker 2: that go beyond the sport that are an international brand. Yep, 2389 01:56:16,640 --> 01:56:21,480 Speaker 2: and you I get it, ten billion dollars, but you 2390 01:56:21,640 --> 01:56:22,320 Speaker 2: sold the Lakers. 2391 01:56:22,360 --> 01:56:23,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's been. 2392 01:56:25,080 --> 01:56:27,320 Speaker 4: I don't know if it's a great job though, so 2393 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:30,440 Speaker 4: like the owner of it, yes, obviously you want to 2394 01:56:30,480 --> 01:56:32,840 Speaker 4: keep that in your back pocket. But I don't think 2395 01:56:32,840 --> 01:56:36,000 Speaker 4: it's a great job. You don't get I mean, you 2396 01:56:36,080 --> 01:56:38,640 Speaker 4: don't get credit for it. Really you're expected to do 2397 01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:41,839 Speaker 4: it right. So that becomes old, that becomes a burden, 2398 01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:45,640 Speaker 4: a burden, and so when the number, the right number 2399 01:56:45,720 --> 01:56:47,600 Speaker 4: comes across, it's kind of hard to turn it down. 2400 01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:49,880 Speaker 4: That's what That's where I would go with it. I 2401 01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:53,600 Speaker 4: hear exactly what you're saying. But the burden that being 2402 01:56:54,120 --> 01:56:57,000 Speaker 4: the name of that franchise has been for Genie Buss. 2403 01:56:57,760 --> 01:57:00,760 Speaker 4: She didn't ask, well, she did ask you she did it, 2404 01:57:00,880 --> 01:57:03,720 Speaker 4: but I'm saying she didn't. She wasn't there in the 2405 01:57:04,080 --> 01:57:07,360 Speaker 4: in the beginning of I'm gonna buy an NBA team, 2406 01:57:07,440 --> 01:57:09,680 Speaker 4: and this is you're going to have to run it. 2407 01:57:09,880 --> 01:57:12,840 Speaker 4: That wasn't the plan. The plan was once she got 2408 01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:16,520 Speaker 4: attached to it, and she really became really good at it. 2409 01:57:16,760 --> 01:57:18,320 Speaker 4: Like I'm going to give it to her, She's the 2410 01:57:18,400 --> 01:57:21,120 Speaker 4: one that's capable of doing it. But like it's something 2411 01:57:21,200 --> 01:57:24,640 Speaker 4: that I'm sure becomes heavy for her and nobody else 2412 01:57:24,680 --> 01:57:27,480 Speaker 4: can really do it in the family, right, So it's 2413 01:57:27,480 --> 01:57:28,200 Speaker 4: a burden. 2414 01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:30,720 Speaker 2: It is, And I will say, like I do think 2415 01:57:30,960 --> 01:57:33,000 Speaker 2: it's a lot for somebody to take on, you know, 2416 01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:35,840 Speaker 2: when her father passed away. I don't think she made 2417 01:57:35,840 --> 01:57:39,640 Speaker 2: the right decisions in hiring her quote unquote friends like 2418 01:57:39,760 --> 01:57:43,880 Speaker 2: the Rambises to do anything because her father put the 2419 01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:45,960 Speaker 2: best people in front of him to do the job. 2420 01:57:46,040 --> 01:57:47,760 Speaker 2: He just are the best people, for sure, And I 2421 01:57:47,840 --> 01:57:51,440 Speaker 2: feel like that's maybe where she didn't make the right 2422 01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:54,840 Speaker 2: decisions early on for the Lakers. But you could have 2423 01:57:55,120 --> 01:57:58,280 Speaker 2: she could have turned that around, you could have. I 2424 01:57:58,760 --> 01:58:03,200 Speaker 2: just can't believe. I cannot believe you sold the Lakers, 2425 01:58:03,400 --> 01:58:07,080 Speaker 2: like you're never We're not going to see family's own 2426 01:58:07,160 --> 01:58:10,000 Speaker 2: teams anymore. This is it's becoming less and less. Now 2427 01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:13,000 Speaker 2: it's just like head funch guys and CEOs and a 2428 01:58:13,080 --> 01:58:17,200 Speaker 2: group of billionaires and like you you could have the Lakers. 2429 01:58:17,320 --> 01:58:18,720 Speaker 2: You sold the Lakers. 2430 01:58:19,280 --> 01:58:21,560 Speaker 4: I get it, and it's I'm sure she has some 2431 01:58:21,640 --> 01:58:24,440 Speaker 4: of that sentiment as well. But she'll be she'll be 2432 01:58:24,520 --> 01:58:26,680 Speaker 4: okay when that check counts. 2433 01:58:26,760 --> 01:58:29,840 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but wasn't she already okay?
